If by marriage (we are talking about the civil component here), you are referring to the ability of two individuals to enter into a legal contract in which one party holds legal power of attorney for the other in case of incapacitation, or in which one party may legally inherit (tax-free) the belongings of the other upon his/her death, then sure -- I'm all for it.
Now you're just being disingenuous. The proper avenue for the latter policy is the elimination of the death-tax. The former, of course, is already legal. Nice try, though.

Your 'proper vehicle' would eliminate taxation of inheritance for a miniscule percentage of gay people.
I guess you've not heard of probate taxes. Are they not on your talking points?
