Vermont lawmakers legalize gay marriage
MONTPELIER, Vt. - The state Legislature on Tuesday legalized gay marriage in the state by overriding the governor’s veto.
Both the House and the Senate rejected Gov. Gov. Jim Douglas' veto of a bill that would allow same-sex marriage.
Vermont became the fourth state to legalize marriages of gay and lesbian couples. The others are Massachusetts, Connecticut and Iowa.
__________
Well, this is the second state to legalise gay marriage in a week. Funny that a state like Iowa and Vermont are now more liberal than California. But then again, I suppose marijuana is more important than civil rights.
