It's About Darned Time

ALBANY, New York (Reuters) – Governor Andrew Cuomo made same-sex marriages legal in New York on Friday, a key victory for gay rights ahead of the 2012 presidential and congressional elections.
New York will become the sixth and most populous U.S. state to allow gay marriage. State senators voted 33-29 on Friday evening to approve marriage equality legislation and Cuomo, a Democrat who had introduced the measure, signed it into law.
I have lost some respect for Obama lately over his handling of a few issues, and this is one of them.  However, despite a lack of support, we finally have movement.  The "deeply troubled" bishops can start minding their own business, and take their concerns and apply it towards the divorce rate, drug addiction, the homeless, or something that is actually, you know... wrong.
