CA: 'Domestic Partners' Gain Right to Fund Attorneys

(2003-09-20) -- Same sex domestic partners in California yesterday gained the right to clog the courts with bitter custody and property battles, providing a cash windfall for attorneys.

The moment of triumph came when Gov. Gray Davis signed a bill passed by Democrats in the state legislature giving homosexuals who live together many of the legal rights and obligations of married couples regarding children, money and property.

"I'm so excited I could cry," said an unnamed woman who claimed she is a lesbian. "In the past, when my relationship turned acrimonious, there was no legal way to take it out on my partner. Now, I can drag her sorry keister into court and get some of her money and her stuff. Of course, if I really want to make a point, I can limit her access to our adopted son."

Perhaps the greatest celebrations yesterday happened in law offices around the state.

"I'm so excited I could cry," said an unnamed attorney. "The more bitterness there is in a family case, the more money I can make. As William Congreve wrote, 'Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.' Well, this is the jackpot...two women!"

You are so right. This article is right on point.

Have you noticed that the only people really excited about marriage these days are homosexuals? The rest of the population has to be dragged kicking and screaming to the alter.

This could be a good thing. The fairies and fairy lovers have spent years convincing the dems that they are sensitive and, well, superior and spreading their normalphobia at every turn.

The negatives have always gone unreported by the left wing media or have been masked in deviant spin.

Now, the lawyers and the tabloid media will have access to all sorts of fairy perversions. We'll know which Hollywood types have been spreading AIDS amongst hundreds of innocents, which companies provide same sex hookers at business conferences, and how often children are involved.

My bet is that, in the first year, there will be revalations that the tinkerbells protest being covered by media and claims that the coverage is so negative that it has to be viewed as hate speech. And, all that will be covered is court statements. Of course, many California judges will seal fairy court records as part of their normalphobia.

Personally I have no problem with gay domestic partnerships. It seems like a good solution to the problem, because it isn't marriage, so those to whom marriage is a sacrament don't have to see it degraded in their view, yet it still gives gay couples legal rights accorded to heterosexual couples. That doesn't bug me any; I've known several gay couples, and they've tended to be conservatives, mainly because they make a lot of money and don't want the government shaking them down any more than the rest of us. If we can get past this issue, it would be great to have them voting for conservatives/libertarians instead of the Democrats who they've had to ally with in the past.
