I think this is over the amendment. Even Kerry says he's against gay marriage. This proposal has fallen flat on its face. Georgia voted against it and nearly 50 senators are opposed to it. Even Housemembers are opposed to it. They want to wait until SCOTUS says it's necessary.

"Even Kerry says he's against gay marriage."

Well done, President Bush. Forced the enemy to run for 'cover'. According to the liberals, that position is the position of a bigot.

They want to wait until SCOTUS says it's necessary.

Then it's too late, and gay marriage is fait accompli.

The real answer is, gays have flocked to DC and introduced themselves all over the place to Congresscritters, they've been on best behavior doing PR furiously and kissing up to the power elite, and people in Congress just flat-@ss don't care about the issue any more. They're anesthetized, just as the utterly evil Hunter Madsen and Marshall Kirk prescribed in After the Ball.

The Republican leadership has quit on the issue, and Mary Matalin is going to dinners for PFLAG-for-Congressmen and telling everyone how homosexuality needs to be a "non-issue" for Big Tent Republicans.
