Pennsylvania Republican attends gay son's wedding days after voting against marriage equality

Pennslyvania Republican Rep. Glenn Thompson's son got married on Friday and his father was there with support. Yet, when given the opportunity to codify the right for his son to be married, he voted it down.

…

Thompson’s congressional office also confirmed the nuptuals were shared with Rep. Thompson.

“Congressman and Mrs. Thompson were thrilled to attend and celebrate their son’s marriage on Friday night as he began this new chapter in his life,” the press secretary said in an email. She noted that they are both “very happy” to welcome their new son-in-law “into their family.” Thompson wasn't happy enough to agree to protect their marriage, however.

6. I almost think they should split the interracial and same sex marriage items into two house bills.

Not so that it could be brought up in the senate, rather to see if all the Republicans who voted against marriage rights would keep same position on a bill only protecting interracial marriage.
