and for those who missed this in the news:

ALBANY — Gov. David A. Paterson has directed all state agencies to begin to revise their policies and regulations to recognize same-sex marriages performed in other jurisdictions, like Massachusetts, California and Canada.

In a directive issued on May 14, the governor’s legal counsel, David Nocenti, instructed the agencies that gay couples married elsewhere "should be afforded the same recognition as any other legally performed union."

I <3 the Guv. And I think that's the first time in more than a decade I've been able to say that, in any state I've lived in...

the Reverends are....

They're unreveredware AFAIC. Probably there is a large overlap with the instigators of that twerp maybe ex-now GI who was handing out Christian evangelizing tokens to Muslims in Iraq and got outed/caught at it recently.

So cool.

Spitzer's going to be quaffing a straight one today, when he thinks about the legacy he could have had.
