In Salt Lake City, in the shadow of the Mormon Church headquarters, dozens of same-sex couples married in the wake of Friday’s District Court ruling lifting the state’s ban on gay marriage. Included among the couples getting married was a Utah State Senator and his partner. State Senator and Democratic Party Chairman Jim Dabakis married his partner, Stephen Justeson, Friday afternoon.

I hope they are "happy".

How long (short) will these alliances be?

One more reason to never Vote DemocRAT or to let your friends vote DemocRAT.

The fruitcakes are coming in early this year. Merry Christmas.

Had a lawyer admit to me that it was GREAT for her. “All of those divorces are great for my bottom line.”. I kid you not.

WTH? I thought the AG had appealed, and therefor all applications were to be halted? This is out of control. The people handing out the licenses need to be ARRESTED!

“How long (short) will these alliances be?”

These alliances are no more than half a foot in length. And there is shit all over these alliances.

I’d guess that emotional thinking fades faster than logical thinking.

Unlike wedding cake bakers, professional liers have no conscience where money is the bottom line.

Legislation by court. Who needs a legislature anymore? Just let the courts do it all, eh?

[Ouchthatonehurt]

I thought it customary that when a decision of a controversial nature was being handed down that the justice would normally stay his decision pending appeal.

Why was it not done here?

[vetvetdoug]

I guess they passed around anal papilloma virus during the reception.

Gays marry in LDS/Mormon country!

The honeymoon suite doubles as a truck stop restroom.

RomneyMarriage on the march, forward.

[MagUSNRET]

With all of this horsechit publicity, you would think the entire USA is queer!

[RginTN]

They’ll be divorced in a year.

From what I’ve read gays don’t rush to marry in big numbers once they have the choice.

[Utah Binger]

Dabakis will certainly find a few boys for satisfaction outside the bonds of marriage. Isn’t that SOP for queers?

RE :”Dabakis will certainly find a few boys for satisfaction outside the bonds of marriage. Isn’t that SOP for queers?”

An argument a Catholic here (obviously a lib) made to me years ago was that gays only go after boys because we wont let them marry, basically its that pent up frustration.

She was referencing Priests.

Now gay marriage is the law here, approved by Maryland voters(not me).
