Gee. Thanks, Bill.

For ... well ... nothing. On the one hand, it's great to hear that Bill Clinton backs same-sex marriage.





After speaking at the Campus Progress National Conference in
Washington, DC, on July 8, the former president was asked if he
supported same-sex marriage. Clinton, in a departure from past
statements, replied in the affirmative.

Clinton opposed same-sex marriage during his presidency, and in
1996, he signed the Defense of Marriage Act, which limited federal
recognition of marriage to one man and one woman. In May of this year,
Clinton told a crowd at Toronto's Convention Centre that his position
on same-sex marriage was "evolving."

Apparently, Clinton's thinking has now further evolved. Asked if he
would commit his support for same-sex marriage, Clinton responded, "I'm
basically in support."

...Asked if he personally supported same-sex marriage, Clinton
replied, "Yeah." "I personally support people doing what they want to
do," Clinton said. "I think it's wrong for someone to stop someone else
from doing that [same-sex marriage]."
