Gay Texas Couple Wakes Up to Find ‘Leave Or Die Fags’ Painted on Their Front Porch: VIDEO

Yes, there is another “debate” scheduled for social issues, but here is yet another constituency for which the President didn’t provide a defense tonight.

What about hospital visitation rights for same sex couples? Will Mitt’s “states rights” plan allow for Texans in gay relationships to have hospital visitation rights?

You miss the point. The whole idea of letting states have a share of the power is letting states have a share of the power. Questions such as who gets visitation rights are like questions of what the rules on marriage are. Different states have different laws.

Does anyone here know what Texas law is right now? Do married couples from other states have hospital visitation rights, currently, if they’re same sex? I don’t know. At a guess, the answer would be yes.
