Indiana: Senate OKs same-sex marriage ban

(I looked a bit and couldn't find it posted anywhere so...)

"The Indiana Senate revived a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriages Thursday, approving the measure and sending it to the House, where it's likely to meet a quick death.

The 38-10 vote marked the fourth time the Senate has approved such a provision, which must be approved by two separately elected legislatures and voters before being placed into the state's founding document."

2. More properly titled

"Motion to rally the base." Keep it pigeon-holed
Mr. Speaker.

4. The republican base in Indiana doesn't need rallied...

Coming from relatively rural Indiana, I can say first hand,
"that" stench is already overpowering.

By the way, is it indypaul Indiana, or Indianapolis?
