Huckabee Supports Gay Marriage Ban

By: Import User
Updated: January 7, 2009
Governor Huckabee says defining marriage as only between a man and a woman would silence the loud voices of activists who want to change social history. On his statewide radio show today, Huckabee said he was among the more than 200 thousand Arkansans who signed petitions to put a state constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage and civil unions in the state. Huckabee says the measure will NOT actually ban anything. He says it would authorize the state to NOT recognize such unions from other states. Huckabee says he favors a federal constitutional ban on gay marriage backed by President Bush.
