      <![CDATA[<br>The point I was trying to make is that you should not need a specific law prohibiting discrimination in the workforce based on sexual orientation. What you need to do is lobby to change this law to include sexual orientation, etc. Once done, all of the other pieces are covered except marriage.<br><br>A 2.2-3900.

Dismal isn't it?<br><br>Opponents of gay marriage have tried hard to paint things as if gay people are given all kinds of rights, and &ldquo;moderates&rdquo; try to say that since many states have civil unions, this should be good enough.

      <![CDATA[A marriage is a legal contract between a man and a woman, until such time as Virginia allows a legal gay marriage, they should not extend benefits to a gay partner, it doesn't even make sense to think it should be allowed. I have nothing against the gays, but what would stop someone from continuously change the name on an insurance policy every-time a friend is need of an expensive insurance claim?
