RE: Michigan gay marriage ban declared unconstitutional
Things are not looking good for the jesus freaks in the 7th circuit, either.

Quote:Judges blast Indiana, Wisconsin gay marriage bans

Quote:Judge Richard Posner, who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan, was dismissive when Wisconsin Assistant Attorney General Timothy Samuelson repeatedly pointed to 'tradition' as the underlying justification for barring gay marriage.

"It was tradition to not allow blacks and whites to marry — a tradition that got swept away," Posner said. Prohibition of same sex marriage, he said, is "a tradition of hate ... and savage discrimination."

Posner frequently cut off Indiana Solicitor General Thomas Fisher, just moments into his presentation and chided him to answer his questions.


When the conservative tells you, "you're fucked" you are really "fucked."
