The California Supreme Court ruling on Prop. 8 yesterday was a foregone conclusion. I'm somewhat surprised that anyone would be shocked by it. It was more shocking that the Proposition passed in the first place. Point is, opponents of same sex marriage have a small window of time. Eventually it will pass in California, and I suspect it will be on the ballot again and again until it does. And I suspect that when it does pass it will look something like this.

People need to be asking questions like this: What has more intrinsic value to a society? A starter marriage between a man and a woman or the marriage of a longtime committed same sex couple?
