How do Obama and MCCain feel about the GAY MARRIAGE ruling in Connecticut?

Link?





Have they held a press conference?How do Obama and MCCain feel about the GAY MARRIAGE ruling in Connecticut?
Obama has always said that it's up to the individual states to define their own marriage laws.





McCain opposes it completely. How do Obama and MCCain feel about the GAY MARRIAGE ruling in Connecticut?
';Feel'; is a nebulous word to use here, but both McCain and Obama were pro gay rights, pro-gay privileges for gay partners.... and both were opposed to gay-marriage -- an institution that is not a government concern. Marriage is a spiritual and religious issue and thus a separation of church and state should apply Obama and McCain also believe this pretty much the same. Governments have extended privileges to couples primarily to ensure that babies are born to provide the next generation of taxpayers, not to promote ';marriage'; for its own sake to make gay people feel bad. Gay people can declare themselves married and any church that wants to can bless them, but the State has no interest in promoting this divisive issue which can only further rip this nation up for no good purpose.
They will both have no comment on it. It is too close to the election to get into the gay marriage hot potato. Many federal politicians have taken the chicken stance of 'let the states decide.'





Edit: As a point of constitutional fact there is no federal mandate that forbids two people of the same gender to be married. There is a implied theme in the constitution and the declaration of independence that people must be allowed gain happiness and liberty.
As a former citizen of Connecticut, I could care less. I'm sure that neither of the candidates care either. They are both personally against it, but I believe they feel it is up to the states. McCain is not against Civil Union.
Gay marriage isn't an issue most voters are focused on for this election. I wouldn't expect either to make a big fuss. McCain is against gay marriage full stop. Obama is against gay marriage but would recognize states that provide civil unions.
Who the hell cares? We're facing an extremely serious financial crisis that can destabilize the entire world, causing enormous suffering and political upheaval. In addition, we're embroiled in two wars that are going badly.
Obama has always been pro gay rights.
During the Vice Presidential Debate Joe Biden said OBAMA/BIDEN they do not support GAY MARRIAGE, but he was trying to add some other stuff. Where as Sarah Palin straight up told you McCain/Palin do not.
I am sure they are both sickened like most in America since they have both said they are against it.
