The Iowa Supreme Court has legalized Same Sex Marriage!!!! In a UNANIMOUS DECISION, the Iowa Supreme Court said, “We are firmly convinced the exclusion of gay and lesbian people from the institution of civil marriage does not substantially further any important governmental objective.” They also said, “The Legislature has excluded a historically disfavored class of persons from a supremely important civil institution without a constitutionally sufficient justification.” To re-phrase what the Iowa Supreme Court said, they said that excluding Gays and Lesbians from getting married has nothing to do with the government and serves no purpose. They also said that excluded a “disfavored” group of people is without constitutional justification.
For people who have been constant readers of this blog, they know my feelings about the MISERABLE COWARDS and POOR EXCUSES for HUMAN BEINGS in the HOMOPHOBIC state of california who voted against Same Sex Marriage. We are currently waiting for the california Supreme Court to decide whether to uphold or strike down prop 8, the Anti Same Sex Marriage proposition that passed in 2008. The only reason the proposition was even on the ballot in the first place is because the california Supreme Court had already ruled that excluding Gays and Lesbians from getting married is UNCONSTITUTIONAL!! So this should be a Slam Dunk Ruling! But from watching the two sides present their side of the debate before the Supreme Court, it looked like they are going to allow prop 8 to stand but for those 18,000 couples who were married during that brief 5 month period when getting married in california was legal, those marriages may remain legal. And if that is the case, that will set up another round of propositions, demonstrations, and UNGODLY amounts of money spent to fight BIGOTRY and by BIGOTS to justify their HATEMONGERING.
I have a GREAT IDEA for all those people who are against Same Sex Marriage ….. DON’T HAVE ONE!!!!
