Well, fresh off the heels of their sound trouncing across the nation, the GOP has decided to return to the basic values that have allowed them to gain the power they have in this country, hate and fear. In this case hatred of the gay community and the unfounded fear of what gay marriage will do to good 'ol "traditional family values" (what ever those really are, because their definition certainly doesn't describe my family's traditional values).

Yes folks, its the Anti Gay Marriage Amendment again -- fresh and reapproved in a 5-4 party line vote in the Senate Judiciary committee, and will go before the full Senate at some point in 2006.
Not much on it in the press yet

Well the battle lines are being drawn. Of course the religious right won't see the patsies they are being played for ... funny how all this concern over gay marriage only comes out in election years.
Personally I find a political party that is willing to play politics with civil rights and the Constitution to be completely reprehensible, but I've thought that of the GOP for for a long time now anyway.
