Not just civil unions, but marriage, in name, for gays. Not that this has any relevance here, given that no one is gay at HA forum.

This isn't "civil unions". Iowa basically declared that the State cannot interfere with anyone's choice of who to name as their next of kin. Marriage isn't about sex or sexuality. The spouse becomes next of kin, not of blood. Ancestry, siblings, & offspring are all once removed.


So, uh... Kelly,

You're corn fed ain't ya? I was just wondering if you'd been doing any "lobbying" over at the Iowa Supreme Court. :wink:
