议会,法庭 ,州议会间就 婚姻保护法 问题的拉锯战让大多数强烈反对同性婚姻的人无计可施。而他们之间轮番的胜败在此刻也显得不那么重要,更重要的是,美国民众对同性恋的态度在最近几年将会发生巨大转变,这是一个令人惊讶的潜在事实。
Gallup reported in May that for the first time ever amajority of Americans said thatsame-sex couples should have the same marriagerights as straight couples. In 1996, the time ofDOMA, the majority leant 68% to 27% the otherway. The controversial policy of dont ask, donttell, which banned gays from serving openly in thearmed forces, is meanwhile due to expire inSeptember with surprisingly little hue and cry. Andwhen National Journal polled political insiders thismonth, it found a majority of Democratic politicos,lobbyists and strategists in favour of making gay marriage legal. No less telling, a majority oftheir Republican counterparts, while continuing to oppose gay marriage, thought their partyshould just ignore the issue.
今年五月的盖洛普民意调查第一次显示,大部分美国民众认为同性伴侣应该享有与异性夫妻同等的婚姻权利。1996年 婚姻保护法 刚颁布的时候,支持上述说法的只有27%,而反对则的占68%。这项所谓不得质不问,不说的颇具争议的禁止同性恋者公开参军法令,将在今年9月份失效。 国家杂志上刊登出对这个月对内部政客意见的调查结果显示,大部分民主党政客,说客,战略家支持同性婚姻合法化。勿需多言,大多数共和党人依然反对同性婚姻,并认为共和党应该直接对同性婚姻问题说,免谈。
