    Now's the time to change our future, our not-so-little tug-o-war with our governments could be over sooner than we thought, this election could change it all, with enough votes in this right places, we can put anti-gay governments in a check-mate til they are forced to step down and let a more fairminded government take their place and maybe then we can have a little peace for a while. Or is that too much to ask of this world?

    Eight states had ban-same-sex-marriage amendments on their ballots. Idaho, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia joined Wisconsin in approving them, according to projections. Results were pending in Arizona, Colorado and South Dakota:icon_sad: .

    Similar amendments have passed previously in all 20 states to consider them.:tantrum:

    Colorado voters had an extra option -- a measure that would grant domestic-partnership rights to same-sex couples.

    Check news sites for latest results.

    The good news is that Bush may become a total lame duck(!) (!) (!)

    thank you though its not exactly good news it pisses me off that the U.S. is so far behind on this issue why is it that there are a lot of countrys around the world who have no problem with same-sex marriage and allow it or else allow something like marriage but the U.S. can't?:bang: its so stupid. I guess it doesn't matter for me because I'm going to try to move to Australia in a few years I've always wanted to move there but there are so many people out there that deserve to get married and can't I guess we'll just have to settle for 'feeling' like we are married until the U.S. and other countries that agree with the U.S. get their head out of their asses
