So he supports it, but still wants the voters in the states to decide

60. I would never tell you to be grateful for being told your civil rights should be left in the hands

of individual states. In order for real equality this has to be done on a federal level. As pointed out up thread. Many including myself would not have the rights we enjoy today if it were left up to the states. In fact in a few states my rights as a woman are being eroded. I see no reason to trust your rights to backward thinking states. My daughter lives in Oregon and has the crumb they gave the GLBT community (domestic partnership). If she were to move to Georgia,(or any other state) where I live it would not be recognized. In fact here in Georgia there is no protection against discrimination in regards to employment or housing. Atlanta is one of two maybe three cities that offer protection against discrimination.

You have every right to be furious.
