Idaho moves closer toward gay marriage ban amendment
An Idaho Senate panel voted five-to-four to send a constitutional ban on gay marriage bill to the full Senate. The amendment bans all marriages not consisting of one man and one woman and refuses to recognize anything even resembling a marriage, such as a civil union. "This bill denies gays and lesbians ... the civil rights of equality," testified David Johns. Then Wendell Bartlow countered, "No argument of the homosexual rhetoric is phonier than the claim of equal rights." Say what!? The bill goes before the Senate on Wednesday.
