At First I Was Bummed
Voters said yes to Amendment 2 here in Florida.
The gay marriage ban passed in California.
What the hell is wrong with people? But then I got to thinking. And by *thinking* I mean *talking.* Cause my friends are wicked smart.
What if these amendments are blessings in disguise? What if they present a golden opportunity for a plaintiff to bring his discrimination complaints before a court of law and the appeals end at the Supreme Court?
The same Supreme Court that might have two or three vacancies during Barack Obama's first term.
An Obama SC... hearing a case about discrimination...separate but equal nonsense...and settling the gay marriage question once and for all could be quite interesting.
Maybe I'm not so bummed after all.

Ohhhhh. That is promising. Thanks. I needed some way to have a positive outlook on these horrible rulings.
AZ also voted to ban gay marriage.
Didn't think of it that way Kate. Thanks!
It's an angle, but wishing on a happy accident should not replace a proactive agenda.
