Last word on the Prop 8 front - they're taking it Federal.

As in, you can't do that on a state level - it conflicts with the Federal level, with regards to discrimination.

Which, if you recall - hasn't been exactly receptive to the whole idea.

...

Anyone besides me think is a Bad Idea?

Like, the SCOTUS probably won't even see the case?

But the stakes couldn't be any more juicy - they win it there, it's automatically everywhere, New York, Neeeeew Yaaaaahrk.

*sighs*

Things remain harder than they need to be, nobody is really looking hard enough at this to see it means less government, not more and I can't see where it's changed/threatned me in the least. I mean, 18,000 cases already exist and I don't know any of them (except George, and that's at a significant remove).

Going home now.

I look at the SCOTUS and I see mostly dried up, conservative, white men. They won't be pro-gay, IMHO. if they even see the case, they will bounce it out on the sidewalk. Its too soon. We need a younger, more diverse court. We need people from every possible background. Then and only then will the SCOTUS be fair to people other than mostly dried up, conservative, white men.
