And proving that it's not about the word "marriage", we get this:

"Republican Rep. Don Coram, whose son is gay, cited his reasons for voting against the measure while his wife, Dianna Coram, wiped away tears in the audience. Coram said civil unions are too similar to same-sex marriage, which Colorado voters banned in 2006. He blasted Democrats, accusing them of bringing up the issue to try to gain votes."

I can't wait to find out what Father's Day is like in that household.

1. I wonder if Coram has to sleep on the couch tonight.

Hopefully his wife will serve that jerk some divorce papers.

2. It's never really been about the word "marriage," but then we have always known this.

Thank G-d, we have the states to decide this for us.
