2008-09-18 23:23:00 - BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) - Brazil's president has come out in favor of same-sex unions. President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva says that in Brazil, «there are men living with men, and women living with women» who «build a good life together.» But a proposed law that would give all same-sex couples rights equal to those enjoyed by married heterosexuals has been stalled in Brazil's Congress for more than a decade. Silva said in an interview aired late Wednesday night by the government-run TV Brasil that politicians who oppose same-sex unions and yet seek the votes of gay men and women during elections are «hypocrites.
