French Senate approves crucial marriage equality measure | The Raw Story
The upper house approved the article overnight by a vote of 179 to 157, with all Senators from the ruling Socialists voting in favour and five from the main opposition right-wing UMP breaking ranks with their colleagues to approve it.
Only 5 conservative senators voted in favour. The UMP leader, a non-practicing jew, supports and attends mass demonstrations against the bill. The german CDU/CSU is against equal rights, specially the bavarian CSU. Even in the UK a majority of tory MPs (136 vs 127) voted against their own party's government.
So european conservatives are to the left of US Democrats?
Marriage is between a man and a woman with a view to procreation. Two men or two women will never be able to have children! UMP Senator Charles Revet said during the debate.
By the way, gay marriage was clearly presented in Hollande's election manifesto in 2012. Everybody knew it. Including the 90% of french muslims who voted for socialist Hollande in the second round. It does not mean that 90% of french muslims support gay marriage. Not at all
