I am ashamed that my home state said "Yea".

Did anyone notice that the "Yeas" came from 47 Republicans and 2 Democrats? I just love politics and politicians!

Re: Gay Marriage Ban fails in Senate
Glad to see that John MacCain voted against it. I have a lot of respect for him and would have hated to see him vote yes.
While I am so pleased that this didn't pass I also hate that it was only 11 votes shy of passing.

Even if it were passed by the Senate (which was unlikely), there's no way it would've passed in the House or been ratified by 3/4 of the states. Luckily, there are many provisions in place to make it very difficult to amend the Constitution. Hopefully, Bush will drop this issue now.

I know that there are many steps. I still find it disturbing that so many voted yes.
I don't think Bush will drop this until he is out of office.
