I don't think Bush has been hypocritical on the gay issue though. I think he has been remarkably consistent. He has always said that gays are people with rights, but that marriage is between a man and a woman exclusively. Bush has stated that civil unions are fine where same sex couples have rights pertaining to thier union.
One can argue that this isn't enough and that seperate but equal has never worked, but at the same time I don't see anything hypocritical about Bush's position.
Note to those who don't know: I will not be voting for Bush. I am not a Bush supporter. Please spare me the recitation of all Bush's evils.
