The state Senate asked for more guidance from the court and sought the advisory opinion, which was made public Wednesday morning when it was read into the Senate record.

Did I miss something here. Should it be that the state Senate advises the courts and not the other way around?

Yes, in a constitutional republic, that's how it works. But Massachussets is a Judiciocracy. And if Kerry wins, the whole country will become one.

As much as I despise Bush's spending record, I guess I'm going to have get up and vote for him.

Why is it ever a contest between the lesser of two evils?

Exactly my thoughts. So the court "rules" on gay marriage. What if the legislature in Mass. does diddly squat on the ruling and essentially ignores them????

Is the court gonna waltz over and b*tch slap the legislature in May???? Who's gonna enforce the 'courts' 'ruling'???? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm....
