Vermont Legalizes Gay Marriage
And overides a veto to do it!
The Vermont House of Representatives passed the bill by a 100-49 vote after it cleared the state Senate 23-5 earlier in the day. In Vermont, a bill needs two-thirds support in each chamber to override a veto.
Look at those numbers. That’s not a slim margin, that’s the writing on the wall. Come on, Delaware – stop dragging your feet!

Way to go Vermont! Talk about leading the nation by example.
Que the wingnuts whinging about Activist Legislatures.
Gays in Vermont… Obama in Baghdad… Al Franken in the Senate!
This is what victory feels like, just for one day.
Is this a great news day or what? Gay marriage in Vermont and Senator Al Franken!
If you think that Vermont is comparable to Delaware in any way, shape or form, think again. They had Howard Dean and Bernie Sanders. We have Jack Markell and Tom Carper. Sorry, Jack, but that doesn’t even come close.
