Quote from the same-sex marriage debate in the New York State Assembly:
"I do not want a seat in your synagogue, I do not want a pew in your church. I seek a license that many of you have had, some of you have had two or three times."
--New York Assemblyman Daniel O'Donnell

excellent! bravo, Assemblyman O'Donnell!
however, the bill has ZERO chance of becoming law. Spitzer put it out there so he can say he kept a campaign promise, but his own people say he will do nothing to push for it.

That's great!
My cousin is a NY State Assemblyman and he voted for this.

I love it! Here where I live we have a gay mayor that was elected without pandering to any of the religious groups and looks good for another term at the least. It finally seems like more people are getting in the machine and making some noise to try to get things done. Thanks for passing on the info!

Well it will be an interesting battle to see completed.
I guess now the fight you guys have is to get the Governor to your side and get that bill signed into law!
