HAROLD FORD, JR. COMMENTS ON THE N.J. GAY MARRIAGE DECISION:

I do not support the decision today reached by the New Jersey Supreme Court regarding gay marriage. I oppose gay marriage, and have voted twice in Congress to amend the United States Constitution to prohibit same-sex marriage. This November there’s a referendum on the Tennessee ballot to ban same-sex marriage – I am voting for it.

I voted against the Tennessee provision, and would have voted against a Federal constitutional amendment, too. I checked Bob Corker’s site but couldn’t find anything on this issue.

Meanwhile, note that the GOP seems to be misrepresenting Ford’s stance on gay marriage. The Ford campaign seems to have done the same thing to Steve Cohen. Hell, I should have run, just so there’d be somebody who’d say he’s for it.
