Reply #50: You quoted Clark's weaker answer

[HFishbine]

The previous question and answer from the same interview provides a clearer distinction between Clark and Kerry:

MR. RUSSERT: Would you support gay marriages?

GEN. CLARK: I support equal rights, and what that means is if people want to enter into a contract where they have the right to visitation in a hospital, just as though they were family, they should have that right. If they want the rights of survivorship, they should have that right. If they want the right to put their partner on an insurance policy, they should have that right. And whether that's called marriage or not is really--that's up to the church or synagogue or mosque and the states. But equal rights in America is a requirement; that's what we stand for as a nation, and that's what I support.

If I'm interpreting this right, I find it very much in line with my views: marriage is a religious matter. Providing equal protection under the law is a fundemental obligation of those sworn to uphold the Constitution.
