the rix mix

The looney birds are already wingnutting to New Jersey to spread their birdshit. So much thanks to Carrie for pointing to this rational blog post by ace lawyer Glenn Greenwald, Rank Ignorance Posing as Expertise.

"Either the New Jersey State Constitution -- as defined by the governing precedents applying it -- compels the legal conclusion reached by the New Jersey Supreme Court or it does not. That is the only relevant issue. It's not a matter of picking and choosing which issues we think it would be nice for a court to resolve and which ones we'd sort of prefer -- given our subjective druthers -- the court leave to the will of the majority."

I'm just happy the court ruled as it did; now we have 180 days to give complete state citizenship to lesbians & gays, & that, no matter how it comes about, is long overdue.
