Bringing Back Gay Marriage: So who is surprised?

We knew it was about that time, didn't we? Bush will prontificate about protecting the sanctity of marriage in a speech on Monday in order to try to rally the right wing Christian base.

Trouble is, 2006 is not 2004 and it is questionable how many people can get worked up over this issue again - atleast, enough to save the GOP from losing big in the November elections.

One of Bush's friends makes the comment in the above link that he doubts if Bush cares about the issue at all since he never even talks about it.

This is pure political pandering - and it is naked for all to see. Wonder if the media will have the guts to take Bush and the GOP to task for it?

Doubtful. Although this Newsweek article is a pretty good start.
