WASHINGTON (AP) -- A year after the Supreme Court struck down a law barring federal recognition of gay marriages, the Obama administration granted an array of new benefits Friday to same-sex couples, including those who live in states where gay marriage is against the law.

The new measures range from Social Security and veterans benefits to work leave for caring for sick spouses. They are part of President Barack Obama's efforts to expand whatever protections he can offer to gays and lesbians even though more than half of the states don't recognize gay marriage. That effort has been confounded by laws that say some benefits should be conferred only to couples whose marriages are recognized by the states where they live, rather than the states where they were married.

Aiming to circumvent that issue, the Veterans Affairs Department will start letting gay people who tell the government they are married to a veteran to be buried alongside them in a national cemetery, drawing on the VA's authority to waive the usual marriage requirement.

In a similar move, the Social Security Administration will start processing some survivor and death benefits for those in same-sex relationships who live in states that don't recognize gay marriage.

Guess I have to marry a dude to get benefits now.

First they let blacks out of slavery, cheapening our freedom. Then they gave the vote to blacks and women. Now this. Why can't we have a country for normal people?





You're trolling P&N.

King Obama strikes again, overruling the will of the states and exploding social security spending once more.

And despite all of this, "traditional" (which shall be referred to as monogamous legacy type unions in the near future) heterosexual marriages keeps on chugging along, bringing with it all of the good and bad things that the institution has produced since the moment somebody thought it was a pretty damn good idea.

But procreating isn't the prime motivator like it was in the distant past, now is it? I wonder who or what is making it that way? *insert Dragnet sound bite here*. ;)

I assume you're kidding...
Gays paid taxes thru wages and every other method just like straight folks.
They too are entitled. They paid, they earned. Just like everyone else.
I never heard of a gay worker bring exempt from taxes just because they are gay and thus will never collect the benefits of society.
Hell.... If being gay meant no paying of taxes then everyone would claim they were gay.
Which I have always suspected. But that's another issue.

Wanting to have sex with someone of the same gender as you does not equate to being born of the bloodline you were or sex you were born as.
It qualifies for sexual deviancy.
Why is this forum so full of liberal shill/trolls?

Because small government is a government big enough to control your most intimate and personal relationships.
