Former President George W. Bush's daughter Barbara is the latest relative of a prominent Republican to support gay marriage. In May, her mother, Laura Bush, gave this answer to a question about gay marriage: "When couples are committed to each other and love each other, that they ought to have, I think, the same sort of rights that everyone has." John McCain's daughter, Meghan, supports gay marriage, though her father's against it, and the lesbian daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney supports it too. Gay rights leaders have seized on the generational split as a sign that support for same-sex marriage can come from either party. Click here. (Dammit, yet another Bush family member that has gained my respect. Disliking them all was so ingrained in me that now I find it hard to believe that Laura and now her daughter have gained my honest positive opinion about them....come on George W. Do someting right for a change and agree with your family)!
