July 27, 2004 -- BOSTON Speakers at the podium of the Democratic
National Convention are being gagged when it comes to gay marriage.
Top party officials and campaign aides said yesterday that not only
has gay marriage been yanked from the party's official platform, but
speakers will be vetted to make sure they steer clear of
pro-gay-marriage rhetoric. "You don't have to have a platform that
itemizes issue after issue like a New York telephone book," explained
national party secretary Alice Germond.
The more than 200 homosexuals taking part in the gay, lesbian and
transgender caucus here prior to the convention kickoff took the news
in stride acknowledging the risk fiery rhetoric on the topic could
have in sending social moderates scurrying to President Bush's camp.
"We're not going to ask John Kerry to lead with his chin," said Josh
Friedes, the advocacy director for the Freedom to Marry Coalition of
Massachusetts.
The Democrats' tip-toeing around the delicate subject was evident in
the speech delivered by Tammy Baldwin, the openly gay congresswoman
from Wisconsin who avoided the word marriage in her call for equal
treatment.
