not really accurate.
“i can support civil unions” isn’t the same as telling people they can secularly do what they want to do. he didn’t have to SUPPORT it.
massive difference.

Did he actually say that(I can support civil unions) or is that CNN’s take on what he said? I don’t read or speak Italian so I can’t say with any accuracy. Can you?
