Chron lede shows bias in marriage debate

The Chronicle's Austin bureau chief, Clay Robison, apparently doesn't think too much of the Legislature's attempts to protect the institution of marriage. Take a look at the first sentence of his story:
Voting for the second time in two weeks to restrict the rights of homosexuals, the Texas House on Monday approved a measure to lock into the state constitution a ban on same-sex marriages and civil unions.
This implies that homosexual marriage is already a "right" that is somehow being taken away by the eeeevil House Republicans. Sorry, Clay. The state of Texas has never recognized gay marriage, and it's already banned by law.
