"More seriously, there's a Wisconsin brother and sister convicted of incest who are appealing, arguing that Lawrence invalidates such laws."

The only way states are gonna get out of this legal straightjacket that Lawrence created is to start arguing -- and codifying into law -- a "compelling interest" argument that the state has in protecting, preserving, and institutionalizing marriage as between one man and one woman.

Anything else becomes a religious argument, and though I personally stand behind that 100% (uh, except in the Mormon context), it obviously won't stand in courts anymore.
