DENVER – A bill to legally recognize civil unions in Colorado may be headed for a quick death at the legislative special session.
House Speaker Frank McNulty (R-Highlands Ranch) opened the session Monday morning by assigning Senate Bill 2 to the State Veterans & Military Affairs Committee – a committee many experts believe will vote down the measure.
“Last week, he didn’t have enough votes to stop civil unions, so he played procedural games to allow his minority to thwart the majority of the House and of the people of Colorado,” House Democratic Leader Mark Ferrandino said. “Today, he still doesn’t have the votes, so he assigns civil unions to his kill committee.”

No wonder he's upset. He and Greggie can't tie the knot and make their mutual fudge packing 'official'.
You can find their dog 'Dagny' easy enough, it's the dog humping the wrong gender of it's species.
