unexpected

Okay, I know I am way over my posting quota for today, but I couldn't let this one get by.

Remember how I said the other day that the CA Assembly was highly unlikely to pass the same-sex marriage bill that got through the state Senate?

I was wrong.

That's great news! :) If Arnie vetoes it, he's going to get one heck of a backlash (same as if he signs it, but it's easier to be hated for doing the right thing).

*enthusiastic, prolonged applause* You must be so proud of your state. G-d! what we couldn't give for a legislature like that! Let's hear it for California and Massachusetts! The decent people may someday rise again. This was a very sensibly written act. And damn the Gropinator if he vetoes it. What's he afraid of? That all the bosomy women will be snapped up by other bosomy women?

From the article: "Schwarzenegger's office has repeated that he believes the issue should be decided either by a vote of the people or a court decision."

Unless, of course, there are activist judges. In which case, the new Supremes will just beat them down.
