• California Trying a Bit Too Hard to Prove How Not-Gay It Is


    This is just so typical, California. Just so typical

    The California Supreme Court upheld a ban on same-sex marriage today, ratifying a decision made by voters last year that runs counter to a growing trend of states allowing the practice…

    Today's decision, written by Chief Justice Ronald M. George for a 6-to-1 majority, said that same-sex couples still have the right to civil unions, which gives them the ability to "choose one's life partner and enter with that person into a committed, officially recognized, and protected family relationship that enjoys all of the constitutionally based incidents of marriage." But the justices said that the voters had clearly expressed their will to limit the formality of marriage to heterosexual couples.

    You sure are going out of your way to prove what a big, strong, heterosexual, traditional-values state you are there, Golden State.

    But, you know what? You're not fooling anyone.
