    But now he can get married to someone he truly loves. You'd think he'd be happy.

    Should a ban on conservative politics be legalized?

    How does giving homosexuals equal protection under the law suddenly equate to legal ganja and Sister Wives? :confused:

    The judge issued a stay. Nothing regarding the current Texas law will change until the Supreme Court takes up the case in the next year or two.

    I predict that by the time Obama leaves office gay marriage will be the law of the land.

    Just one more feather in the cap of the most transformative administration in 60 years.

    Medicare, Civil Rights Act, and the Voting Rights Act were all 50 years ago and any of the three would be more "transformative" than anything Obama has done, IMO.
