Obama to Extend Benefits to Partners of Federal Employees
Posted by

No word on if he will continue to allow "bigotry" and discrimination against bisexuals with two partners, or against platonic roommates, siblings, parents, etc., nor is there an explanation for why such discrimination is okay, but the previous level of discrimination is not. He will do this via Executive Order instead of legislation, as bone to the marriage neutering advocates. I also have to wonder what qualifies as a "partner" - do they just take the word of anyone who says so? If so, they should do the same for both-sexes couples and not require a marriage license. Let's extend this to anyone who is shacking up or simply staying together in an extended stay hotel.
