The U.S. Senate votes against sanctioned bigotry and votes down a proposed constitutional amendment to prohibit same-sex marriage. Someone, I think it was Santorum, was shown on the BBC News claiming in the debate that this threatened the safety of the American family and that this was the number one danger in the US today. So Senator Santorum believes the freedom for two people of the same sex to publically express their love for one another and to receive the same benefits, rights and responsibilities as heterosexual couples is a bigger danger to the United States than terrorism or the war on drugs. Unless the next lie of the administration is to insist that these Muslim extremists who live by a very strict interpretation of the Koran are all batty boys.
