I don't see it that way, except for the fringiest types on both sides of the issue.
California found the idea of alerting a minor's parents before she chooses surgery to be controversial. That's not liberal/conservative.
Amazing.
Are you ALWAYS this much fun?
So yes, it was down partisan lines, and no...it isn't just "fringe" either.
So tell me...what part of California do you live in again?
