Though Bush himself has publicly embraced the [federal marriage] amendment, he never seemed to care enough to press the matter. One of his old friends told Newsweek that same-sex marriage barely registers on the president’s moral radar. “I think it was purely political. I don’t think he gives a shit about it. He never talks about this stuff.”
The president will again tomorrow endorse passage of a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage, even though both supporters and opponents agree the amendment has no chance of winning the necessary two-thirds vote from either house of Congress. And Mr. Bush has not phoned any member to ask for their vote:Planet Side NOCD crack
A White House official … says Bush has not made calls on the amendment because “nobody has asked us.”
Umm, hmm. Yes, that is how it usually works, Rev. Dobson. The president doesn’t lobby for legislation he favors passionately unless somebody asks him to lobby. Geez, everybody knows that.Planet Side NOCD crack
