I wonder when the weirdos in California will put a proposition on the ballet inter-species marriage.

Another ridiculously ignorant screed. The "weirdos" in California voted in 2008 to re-affirm their desire to make marriage between one man and one woman. A Federal judge. A Reagan appointee just struck down our wishes.

That's right. Two points: First of all, the "will of the people" means nothing in California. Seems like whenever a proposition is passed, the LOSER (in caps for a reason) merely has to find a sympathetic judge to overturn it, or at least take the teeth out of it. Remember Proposition 187? Second, if there's any silver lining in this cloud, it's that over 90% of decisions from the 9th Circuit that make it up to SCOTUS are overturned. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
