This is more reason every sane person needs to fight this every day. The GOP wants to drag America back 50 years.
Thanks for pissing me off first thing in the morning. I haven't even had my coffee yet.
Quote:“What an incredible early Christmas present from the U. S. Supreme Court,” Jonathan Saenz, president of Texas Values and a lawyer who helped challenge the limits of same-sex benefits in the state, told the Statesman. This is no doubt being framed as a "victory for traditional marriage." Would someone please explain to me how heterosexual married couples are better off than they were before the Supreme Court's ruling?

I am more curious to know how the SCOTUS justifies this against "equal protection under the law". 
It's like you are reading our newspaper this morning.
“What screws us up the most in life is the picture in our head of what it's supposed to be.”
Also if your signature makes my scrolling mess up "you're tacky and I hate you." 
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
The people who filed this lawsuit should just do the world a favor and kill themselves.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
