The way it is now, they want to force Ministers to marry gays. Not So Fast, New Hampshire [David Freddoso] Same-sex marriage hit a snag today in the Granite State, losing in a 188-186 vote in the state House. Not because legislators object to same-sex marriages, but because they apparently object to some priest having the freedom not to perform them: The legislature had been asked to approve language that would give legal protections, including the right to decline to marry same-sex couples, to clergy and others affiliated with religious organizations. That wording was added by Governor John Lynch, a Democrat who promised to sign the bill if those changes were made...State Representative Steve Vaillancourt, a gay Republican from Manchester, was a leading voice against the amendment securing religious liberties, saying that the House should not be "bullied" by the governor. Gov. Lynch has promised a veto unless his language is adopted. The Corner on National Review Online (20 May 2009) corner.nationalreview.com
