Where are they now?

So the California Supreme Court will hear arguments for and against the constitutionality of the state's "Defense of Marriage" law on March 4th. Guess who the attorney for the state is?

Kenneth Starr.

Yes, that Kenneth Starr.

There must be some irony in this somewhere, but I'm having a hard time articulating exactly what it might be...

We have marriage over here, but we also have a system, which is primarily but not exclusively used by the gay community called 'civil partnerships'; essentially the legal aspects of marriage without the grandiose ceremony in the name of a g-d who apparently has a thing against gays.

I can understand people's reasons for taking a life partner and i think in most cases it is for both reasons you pointed out.
