“there goes a potential tax rev uplift for the state and federal gov.”
M4L and others, doesn’t the Defense of Marriage Act (signed by the triangulating President Clinton way back in the election year of 1996) ban recognition of same-sex marriages in the federal tax code, even if sanctioned by a particular state? I’m not sure, just asking.
im gay. and am i the only one who gets a little nauseated seeing two grooms on top of a wedding cake? or two brides? im sorry, but it’s lame. let heteros have their thing. jeez. and strip the heteros of any tax benefits tho for being married. people shouldnt get all the benefits they get just because they get “married”. it’s a ridiculous concept that needs to end sooner than gay marriage needs to begin. of course im probably just bitter and jaded cuz im single and most likely forever will be.
there goes a potential tax rev uplift for the state and federal gov. Hitting gay couples with the lovely marriage penalty would’ve yielded much needed tax rev. Politicians are just enough of bean counter mindset
etson is right. The shift will mean the death of the bill, at least for now, as there are only two weeks left to get it pushed through prior to the summer recess. This is not enough time, especially in light of the current opposition to the bill.
wow…it’s quiet in here today…

dibs, I do not think that the gay marriage bill is dead, it was just placed in a politically-induced coma for a year or two.
