Democracy isn't dead yet.

For what its worth, something good happened today.

The US senate rejected President G.W.Bush's proposed amendments that would ban same-sex marriage.

Bush's policy was one that Same-Sex marriage would harm society, and rip the moral fabric of the American people. Not be be caustic, but the moral fabric of the American people has already been used repeatedly as an ass-wiping instrument, and anything that would kill the rights of a legitimate, non-violent group would harm society much more than any gay/lesbian couple could.

What would be the next ban? Teen driving?

I'm curious how people could support such movements.
