Elizabeth Edwards Comes Out In Favor of Same-Sex Marriage

The San Francisco Chronicle is reporting here  that Elizabeth Edwards has broken with her husband (and Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton) on the issue of same-sex marriage. The paper reportsher as saying,”I don’t know why somebody else’s marriage has anything to do with me.”And,”I’m completely comfortable with gay marriage.”It was also refreshing to see Edwards describe her husband’s position:against same-sex marriage, but in favor of civil unions:as”frustrating,”especially when, again in her words, he claims to have a”deeply held belief against any form of discrimination.”
