Re "Their daughter, Annie,"
THEY don't disclose which woman is the mother...
or if EITHER is the birth mother. But they used
the kid as part of their lawsuit. So WHAT is supposed
to happen to the girl's psyche now that these two
idiots have screwed up on their very CHERISHED
vows to each other? I doubt she has many friends
who can boast of two mothers but no Dad!
"The Goodridges, lead plaintiffs in the landmark case Goodridge v. the Massachusetts Dept. of Health which gained same sex couples the freedom to legally marry in Massachusetts, were united in a ceremony officiated by the Rev. William G. Sinkford, president of the Unitarian Universalist Association, and Deborah Kay, an attorney and close friend of the Goodridges. Annie Goodridge, Julie and Hillary's eight-year-old daughter whose questions about why her mothers couldn't be married sparked a three-year legal battle, acted as jubilant ring bearer and flower girl, and beamed during the entire ceremony from the front row."

Speaking of idiots, wonder how this one
feels about the rationality of HIS participation
now!
"In celebrating the marriage of Julie and Hillary Goodridge, the Rev. Sinkford also performed his first legal wedding since making the decision to not sign marriage licenses as long as legal marriage was denied to same-sex couples. Sinkford said, "It was great privilege to participate in the marriage of this loving and committed couple. It is a great and happy day for Unitarian Universalism and for all of the citizens of the Commonwealth." "
Anyone know what in hell "Unitarian Universalism" is?
Sounds like he has one of those 90 day diplomas granting
him a Reverend title!
