Federal Marriage Amendment: Even more bs from Bush
From Bush’s recent radio address on the federal marriage amendment:
In our free society, people have the right to choose how they live their lives. And in a free society, decisions about such a fundamental social institution as marriage should be made by the people
…we’re in a free society?
Another portion:
These court decisions could have an impact on our whole Nation. The Defense of Marriage Act declares that no state is required to accept another state’s definition of marriage. If that act is overturned by activist courts, then marriages recognized in one city or state might have to be recognized as marriages everywhere else.
Perhaps not. There’s no legal statute that requires states to recognize traditional marriages made in another state. They just simply do it. To the best of my knowledge (and I did a few searches to double-check), there exists NO law requiring that one state recognize a man and woman’s marriage that was made in another state. They simply do. *shrug*
