Delaware became the 11th state to legalize same-sex marriage after a lengthy debate Tuesday in the state Senate and the surprise votes of two lawmakers.

A half hour after the 12-9 Senate vote, Gov. Jack Markell signed the legislation into law on the main stairs in the lobby of Legislative Hall.

According to the bill, Delawareans will be able to enter into same-sex marriages effective July 1. The law provides a mechanism for converting existing same-sex civil unions established in Delaware to marriages.

Huzzah!

America loves a winner!

How many states have passed laws legalizing same sex marriage on a vote BY THE PEOPLE ?

Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

Probably about as many as passed laws "by a vote of the people" against slavery, segregation, and outlawing of interracial marriage back then.

So, aside from your meaningless, evasive reply... ZERO ?

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)

I thought we were a representative republic, Rappy, not a democracy.

Are you saying that everything should be put to a vote by all of the people?

How many times did "the people" vote to invade Iraq?

How many times did "the people" vote against background checks for gun purchases?

How many times did "the people" vote for TARP bailouts for Wall Street banks?

Mitt Romney, introducing his running mate: "Join me in welcoming the next President of the United States, Paul Ryan!"

Rappy's response? "You're lying, gullible ( believing in some BS you heard on msnbc ) or hard of hearing."
