US House to vote THURSDAY on bill taking swipe at gays over marriage

This is perhaps just as sleazy as the constitutional amendmet. The US House will vote this Thursday on legislation that would block federal courts, including the US Supreme Court, from hearing any cases challenging the Defense of Marriage Act. This way, gays could not sue to overturn DOMA (DOMA basically is a law that says the federal government never has to provide married gay couples any benefits of marriage, and more importantly, that states don't have to recognize other state's legally performed marriages of gay couples.

Well, it seems Tom Delay wants to keep President Bush's little gay-bashing war going, so I guess we keep bashing back. I sure hope no senior staff in the White House or Bush campaign are gay. Because if they are, you're all going to know about them very soon.
