Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker to Prevent Same-Sex Couples Hospital Visitation Rights [View all]

http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2011/05/17/wisconsin-governor-scott-walker-to-prevent-same-sex-couples-hospital-visitation-rights/

.....Doug asks, “Is the GOP hatred for gays so pervasive that they could really be this cold and heartless?”

Walker is literally going out of his way to prevent two people in a loving, committed relationship from visiting one another at the hospital. In other words, at what is quite likely a couple’s darkest hour, Scott Walker wants to impose legal restrictions barring two people from being with one another.
