Bush leaning towards endorsing constitutional ban on gay marriage

Can you imagine a constitutional amendment, alongside freedom of speech, separation of church and state, equal protection, etc, that said that "marriage is defined as a union between a man and a woman"?

This would defile the constitution and cheapen the rights that it guarantees for everyone.

WASHINGTON - The White House refused to commit President Bush on Wednesday to supporting a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriages, although conservative groups say they already have received high-level assurances that he will take that step.
