Mike Gravel: 'Love between a man and a man is beautiful' David Edwards and Mike Sheehan

Published: Wednesday May 9, 2007 Print This Email This Mike Gravel, 2008 Democratic presidential candidate, says he has no problem with gay love. New Hampshire's WMUR TV hosted a conversation with Gravel in which the former US senator, answering an audience question about gay marriage, replies, "If a couple of lesbians or gay men want to get married, and they love each other, they should have the right to do that and enjoy all the legalities in our society that go along with that. I have no problem with that at all." "I think that people who create these problems of homophobia and the likes of that do us a disservice," Gravel continues. "We are all human beings and one of the things that should motivate us, most of all, is love." He blasts President Bush's "faith-based leadership," saying, "You can't legislate morality."
