Cheney sides with Dean

From Meet the Press this morning: on the matter of same-sex unions, Cheney apparently aggrees with Howard Dean: a) the legality should be decided at the state level and b) there should be no constitutional ammendment. The quote:

"Whether or not there ought to be some kind of official sanction...of the [same-sex] relationship or if these relationships should be treated the same way a conventional marriage is, that’s a tougher problem. That’s not a slam dunk. I think the fact of the matter, of course, is that the matter is regulated by the states. I think different states are likely to come to different conclusions and that’s appropriate. I don’t think there should necessarily be a federal policy in this area.”
