"For the good of families, children and society, I support a constitutional amendment to protect the institution of
marriage."-
George W Bush
Friends,
George
Bush tells America that it is his intention to spread freedom
across the world, but at the same time is determined to limit
freedom in his own country.
We
all worked really hard last year to defend our rights, but our
opposition has come back this year even stronger.
Did
you know that it has been recently discovered and published in
the news that the president used our tax dollars to pay columnists
to write anti-gay propaganda. He was also quoted in the
New York Times as saying that "studies have proven that children
grow up healthier when brought up by a father and a mother
than when brought up by gay parents...
...THIS
IS FALSE INFORMATION being fed to Americans by our president.
Every official US social and psychiatric organization has run
studies that prove the exact opposite.

 Bush
speech angers gay Americans
In
a stronger attack on marriage equality this year, President
George W. Bush delivered a State of the Union speech on
Wednesday that specifically called for a constitutional
amendment to forbid marriage rights for same-sex couples, and
many GLBT groups reacted with anger..
"Because
marriage is a sacred institution and the foundation of society,
it should not be redefined by activist judges," the
president said. "For the good of families, children and
society, I support a constitutional amendment to protect the
institution of marriage."

 HRC RESPONDS TO STATE OF THE UNION
ADDRESS
Once again, President Bush contradicts himself.
President Bush said that government should never undermine family values and family responsibilities but, in the very next breath, called for passage of a constitutional amendment that undermines GLBT families and denies them the same
responsibilities of all others.
President Bush, in his first State of the Union of his second term, chose the divisive path of supporting the narrow interests of extremist elements of his party over uniting the American people.
Sadly, once again he valued the extremism of a few over the greater good of protecting all Americans, including GLBT families whose well-being are
jeopardized by this proposal.
