What exactly is supposed to have been defeated in NY? Gay marriage passed
in NY just recently after a
long drawn out fight. We're still having some controversy here in NY (one
town clerk refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples), but it did
pass.
Moderator: Please let me explain, NOM is a group that is anti-gay marriage. The Gay marriage win in NY was a loss for NOM. ....Jake
