Re: California overturns ban on same-sex marriage
The California Supreme Court is set to review prop 8 next March.

Opponents of the proposition are saying that "the measure was actually a constitutional revision, instead of a more limited amendment. A revision of the state Constitution can be placed before the voters only by a two-thirds vote of the Legislature or a constitutional convention".

Supporters are saying that "it merely amended the constitution by restoring a traditional definition of marriage", and that they'll "mount a recall of any justice who votes to overturn the measure".

Glad to see the threats have already begun. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Well, Californians are nothing if not reasonable.

No wait, did I say reasonable? I meant unreasonable. Unreasonable.

People here keep complaining that Californians have "taken over" Montana. So maybe we've stolen some of your liberals.

you do have the appropriate landscape for the faux-meditative, guilt-ridden, desperate-for-'spirituality' kind that think the wilderness invokes some sort of innocent purity.

good luck with those.

Maybe we gave you some of our God-fearing, gun-toting conservatives in the exchange?
