Throw the rat a bone...

I suppose in the interests of fair play I need to acknowledge this. Not being able to inherit your partner's superannuation was to my mind the major legal reason why gays need their relationships acknowledged. At least I'll know [livejournal.com profile] ristin will be looked after, should the worst happen. It's a common political strategy to throw the offended group a bone to defuse criticism, but I have the satisfaction of knowing this will outrage the (mis-named) Australian Family Association. I don't know what the legal situation is in America, but I can't see George W. Bush passing legislation like this.
