Tomorrow the Senate will hold the first hearing on The Respect for Marriage Act, which repeals the Defense of Marriage Act, thus granting to all lawfully married couplesincluding same-sex couplesto receive federal marriage benefits and protections if they are joined by a valid marriage in a state where such marriages are legal.
The president has long called for a legislative repeal of the so-called Defense of Marriage Act, which continues to have a real impact on the lives of real people --our families, friends and neighbors, White House press secretary Jay Carney said at todays press briefing.
He is proud to support the Respect for Marriage Act, introduced by Senator Feinstein and Congressman Nadler, which would take DOMA off the books once and for all," said Carney. "This legislation would uphold the principle that the federal government should not deny gay and lesbian couples the same rights and legal protections as straight couples.

EEEEEK!
My hubby would never kiss me like I was from planet of the apes.
LMAO!!
Fighting to win is what the Repubs should do but no, they’re still dancing the minuette (most of them), and in the Senate - most are Dems with an “R” pinned on.
I’m gonna have nightmares! LOL! Of course, the Zero IS a nightmare!
Because you AREN’T from the planet of the apes....the wookie IS,
No kidding, I can’t wait until this guy is out of office. The stupid garden and all that.
He will
But, but, but, he says he is a Christian. He supports gays, homo marriage, homos in the military. I can tell you I know of NO true beleiving Christian that supports any of those. This guy is going to get hammered at the Great White Throne.
Is there anything they’ve done that WASN’T either stupid or completely insane?

These people are beyond irrational. Us normal people are flummoxed. We’re seeing it in Wisconsin, but, it’s being orchestrated by Obama’s community organizing crap. We’re being bombarded by the counrty’s libs. Obama is pissed Walker stopped his stupid choo-choo train. He hates we’re next to Illinois and we went Red. He has a hate on for Wisconsin. So, he’s sending all his goons here. Everything you see about the Wisconsin protests are from Obama’s Chicago goon squad. Guess what? We’re going to win.
We are not Illinois, and you are going to be losers. We don’t want you here. And we’ll send you away. Bye-bye.
It isn’t so much the laws that are getting to me. It’s the hatred. Twenty years ago, people like Bil Maher would wake up in the hospital with two broken legs and the doctor spending six hours pulling whatever teeth weren’t broken out of his mouth.
Now these fools are what pass for pillars of society.
Well said! Stay strong in Wisconsin! We ARE going to win! I can taste it. :)
