SJR-7 Amendment to the Indiana Constitution -Dead

Advance Indiana is celebrating the death of SJR-7. SJR-7 would have constitutionally banned same sex marriage in the State of Indiana. Political parties on both sides voted the amendment down. The Democrats cited the fact that Indiana already had laws on the book banning same sex marriage. And Indiana Court of Appeal has ruled in favor of upholding the ban.

But to give Democrats a finger snap for voting down the amendment, I don't understand. Hey it was not because of the same sex ban that they voted against the resolution. It was that little tricky language that would have have robbed "keeping house couples" benefits, that carried the day.

That second paragraph screwed Indiana General Assembly from Constitutionally ousting same sex union off the land of Indiana. It was legal incidents of marriage that killed no amendment, not Democrats.

But I'm still voting for Obama. What the heck is the same sex community thinking?
