Judicial Activism? More like sour grapes.

Judicial Activism? I'm sorry, but the patriotic flag-bearing, bible-thumping chicken-hawks have got to be kidding me. Last year, the California legislature, who are elected to REPRESENT "the people", passed a bill legalizing gay marriage only to have it vetoed by the Guv. Is that supposed to be the will of the people? You can't have it both ways. By the way, if you haven't been keeping track, the NAYs are just about neck and neck with the YAYs. Is it going to galvanize the Republican party base? Probably. Will that keep the Republicans from losing seats in November? Probably not. (See Democrat Don Cazayoux.)

So, what is the purpose of marriage? To procreate? Let's get behind Initiative 957 (a failed ballot initiative in Washington). In any case, remind me again why people are fighting over this?

I'd rather fight over our stupid food prices, rice shortages, Darfur and the Iraq war. Seriously. What's up with stodgy curmodgeons? They are like the people in Pleasantville. What an unpleasant, boring place to be.
