CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio (AP) -- The nation's first domestic-partner registry created directly by voters, giving homosexual and heterosexual unmarried couples the right to officially register as partners, opened for business yesterday.

Five couples were in line at 9 a.m. when the Cleveland suburb began its registration program, approved by voters in November.

Why did voters have to "approve" this?

Any business that wanted to offer this service could have without the "voters". Sounds more like the "voters" were FORCING businesses that offer registries to do the same for same-sex couples.

Now that's totalitarianism, not being inclusive. What happened to our right of association?

At the rate things are going, it will be illegal to "deny" gays anything based on freedom of choice.

The only true groups of people in our country it's legal and stylish to discriminate are Republicans and Christians...Christian Republicans even more.

Yeah, that's the America I want to live in.

Oh, it's "registering" as same-sex. I read it too fast and thought it was about stuff you can buy them at a department store! LOL

But I did notice the writer of the article threw in the oldest LIE and CANARD in the book today...the "hospital visit rights".

My goodness. The only time I was in the hospital, half the staff was gay. And NO ONE was denied visitation to see me. Even a my best guy freind was allowed to stay the night with me if I wanted because my wife was tired and overworked and needed to go home and then we had a snow storm and she couldn't get back to the hospital.

I'm SO SICK of hearing this old lie. It's got to be 20 years old by now.
