Kerry favors civil unions for gays and opposes a constitutional amendment to define marriage between a man a woman.I have not seen any recent story where Kerry opposes a constitutional amendment to define marriage, neither have I seen a recent quote where Bush opposes civil unions for gays.
At least on paper, Bush and Kerry are not that far apart on this issue, but I could be wrong.
At any rate, the economy and Iraq will probably make or break Bush.
Most people oppose gay marriage, but they don't seem too fond of a constitutional amendment either.
"At least on paper, Bush and Kerry are not that far apart on this issue, but I could be wrong."
I see where you are coming from and IMHO that is because Bush hasnt clearly articulated his own position well enough.
If this country falls for the 'oppose gay mariage, but give them all right except in name', then they are dumber than I thought.
