Gay Marriage One Vote Away From Legality in New York

A bill that would legalize gay marriage in New York, backed by
Gov. Andrew Cuomo and already approved by the Democrat-controlled
state Assembly, is one
vote shy of the 32 needed for passage in the
Republican-controlled Senate. The latest convert, Sen. Roy McDonald
(R-Saratoga), recently
told reporters:

You get to the point where you evolve in your life where
everything isn't black and white, good and bad, and you try to do
the right thing. You might not like that. You might be very
cynical about that. Well, fuck it, I don't care what you think. I'm
trying to do the right thing.
I'm tired of Republican-Democrat politics. They can take the job
and shove it. I come from a blue-collar background. I'm trying to
do the right thing, and that's where I'm going with this.

Meanwhile, Archbishop Tomothy Dolan condemned the bill as the
sort of social engineering you'd expect in China or North Korea,
where "government presumes daily to 'redefine' rights,
relationships, values and natural law." Dolan explained that
Americans, by contrast, "cherish true freedom, not as the license
to do whatever we want, but the liberty to do what we ought."
