legalizes same-sex marriage in Maine
His decision follows yesterday’s vote of 89-57 in the House and a 21-14 vote in
the Senate. Today's decision stands unless overturned by the people of Maine should they
as the union of one man and one woman.
New
Hampshire’s Senate recently approved a similar bill
to allow homosexuals to marry. The House approved an earlier version of the
bill and will make the final vote today. If it passes the House, Governor John Lynch will then have five days to decide whether to sign the bill
or veto it. If passed and signed by the Governor, the people of New
Hampshire may, as a last measure choose to amend their constitution
to affirm traditional marriage.

Will John be going to Notre Dame to hear his new friend Obama speak?
If I were the parent of a Boy Scout, I’d have to question John’s behavior!
Maybe he is going to come out period.
I always thought that Murtagh was an involved member of St. Joseph’s Church.
Not sure that this is going to sit well with the people in Bronxville.
Maybe Johnna is going to come out and become a democrat.
I always thought Murtagh looked like Spongebob Squarepants.
I don’t support gay marriage. I believe that the institution of marriage is intended for a man/woman relationship.
I do applaud the pioneering spirit of these small pockets in our country, however I may disagree with what they’re doing.
Either way we should observe the changing face of the country and move forward together.
