Bruce Springsteen backs gay marriage in NJ
(AP) – 3 hours ago

TRENTON, N.J. — "The Boss" is backing gay marriage in the Garden State.

Bruce Springsteen posted a statement on his Web site urging support of the gay marriage bill that's up for a vote in New Jersey's Senate on Thursday.

Springsteen wrote that he's long believed in and has "always spoken out for the rights of same-sex couples."

The native son says he agrees with Gov. Jon Corzine that marriage equality is a civil rights issue.

Gov.-elect Chris Christie is a big Springsteen fan. The Republican has said he would veto the bill.

1. Of course Christie won't, he's a homophobic Republican jerk.

Marriage equality in New Jersey is now or never (well, now or post-Christie, anyway.)

2. I just hope Christie doesn't take away the civil unions

I mean it may be better than nothing for now until New Jersey realizes what a nitwit they just elected.

4. He can't; the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled them constitutionally necessary.

And no such legislation would pass the NJ Legislature anyway.

5. Like that would stop fundie nutjobs

I mean it's legal and all but when it comes to gays marrying and fundie nut jobs- that doesn't stop them

3. Well then it's settled law, right?

He's the Boss after all.
