He is NOT caving. When he made the statement he said he supported civil unions which are legally binding contracts tantamount to marriage which is mostly a religious ceremony.

His position is comparable to your favorite candidate and completely in line with HIS position in the matter so I fail to see how it is wrong if Kerry states it and bold if someone else states it and for the record, he has been defending GAY right since the 80's and authored one of the first anti-discrimination laws against gays in the workplace.

If he says he is FOR giving you ALL the rights inherent in a marriage without using a term that is a religious BUZZ WORD, how is that chicken?

How is it any different than any of the other candidates' comments in the matter?

Has one already said, "When I become president the first thing I will do is make GAY MARRIAGE legal?"


edited to reflect that Kucinich and Sharpton have but none of the frontrunners.
