Excellent, concise, pithy - call it what you want, but I'd say you nailed it (but I don't see the irony??)!

I'd add that it also establishes precedent against gay marriage.

So we can't jail 'em, so what? We, the People, retain power to refuse to recognize 'em in every other manner of public policy.

She fostered a child from FL because she wanted to "help" kids in the foster care system which was getting a lot of bad publicity at the time. She whined on O'Reilly about not being able to adopt her, but she knew this going in. She used that child for over a year to further her own agenda.

....and we have found nothing in the Constitution that forbids this policy judgment.

Thus, any argument that the Florida legislature was misguided in its decision is one of legislative policy, not constitutional law. The legislature is the proper forum for this debate, and we do not sit as a superlegislature “to award by judicial decree what was not achievable by political consensus.”

Excellent, excellent news!
This is 180 degrees opposite of what Democrats want, and 180 degrees opposite of how scumbag liberal activist (Democrat) courts like the 9th Circus (and recently, with O'Connor's rapid decline, the US Supreme Court) routinely rule. Rulings like this one give me hope that the nation can still be saved.

I know, elation was my reaction too! Couldn't wait to post this. Let's hope it's not a false dawn.

Thank you for refreshing my memory. I do remember that she was adopting kids, and that she lived in Florada, and a discussion about gays being allowed to adopt in Florida. Your memory is better than mine!
