The Gothamist

interviews Paul Ford. Writer, programmer, general-use commentator, semanticator, prognostificator, humorist. The most compelling person on the net that I’ve read but never met.

Andrew Sullivan

weighs in on today’s remarks by President Bush:

He is proposing to remove civil rights from one group of American citizens – and do so in the Constitution itself. The message could not be plainer: these citizens do not fully belong in America. Their relationships must be stigmatized in the very Constitution itself.

I’m not convinced,

February 24, 2004 by Michael Boyle

I’m not convinced,

but reading the transcript of Bush’s statement just now, the following quote jumps out at me:

The amendment should fully protect marriage, while leaving the state legislatures free to make their own choices in defining legal arrangements other than marriage.

To me, it is clear that Bush supports Civil Unions. I hope the press will push him on this point, because it is a significant departure from other statements that have come from the right on this issue.
