ELTON JOHN SOLVES GAY MARRIAGE CONTROVERSY Posted by Michael Medved TownHall.com
One of the worlds most prominent gay entertainers offered some rare common sense on the explosive issue of same sex marriage. In New York City for a gala AIDS benefit, rock legend Sir Elton John appeared with his long-time partner, David Furnish. Were not married, he told the press, Lets get that straight. We have a civil partnershipI dont want to be married! Im very happy with a civil partnership. The word marriage, I think, puts a lot of people off. You get the same equal rights that we do when we have a civil partnership. Heterosexual people get married. We can have civil partnerships. If more people on all sides of this issue embraced the simple, irrefutable logic of this clear-thinking superstar, a vastly divisive, unnecessary controversy could reach a successful and amicable solution.
