"" WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama is extending child care, medical leave and other benefits to same-sex partners of federal employees.
Obama on Wednesday directed federal agencies to immediately begin allowing domestic partners and their children some of the same rights available to spouses and children of employees. That includes child-care services and subsidies, expanded family and medical leave and relocation and other benefits.

This is weird since the fed gov won't recognize same sex marriage.
Its like offering a free car wash to people that do not own a car.
