I think the easy solution would be let them have a civil union. If you don't want two homosexual people to be "married", fine, just give them thier rights like any married couple. Let them claim each other on health insurance, taxes, and let them be recognized as a partner when only "family members or spouses" are allowed to see them in an ER.

I used to work for a construction company that my ex was covered under my health insurance because we lived together. So we didn't have to be married for her to qualify. Now this is some sh*t: I currently work for a company that is heterosexually discriminant. If two men or two women live together, they qualify under each other's health plan. Me and my girl live together, but she doesn't qualify under mine, because we are oppisite sex. Now we've gone from one extreme to the other.
I feel the same way...Also, it is really funny that this is only an issue when approval ratings are down, or when they need to get the conservative votes.....There are way too many more important issues going on rightnow...
