It's pretty great, and I can't help but read the last bit and think that it's a not so subtle erection pun/troll of homophobes.

I have the tears.

Amazing - this post has been up for more than a half-hour and SB still has yet to chime in with a whinge about how this ruling takes the nation one step further down the slippery-slope of moral relativism.

@4: Must be the time difference in Italy.

Compare with the 2006 Washington State Supreme Court decision by Barbara Madsen, Gerry Alexander, and Charles Johnson which reads like a conservative screed.

Barbara Madsen is the current chief justice of the Washington State Supreme Court and Charles Johnson is still on the court. Fuckers.

Certain foundational rights should be safe from the barking crowds. Indeed.

We played "smear the queer" way back in 2000 as well.

It feels good to have the full west coast.

@2: (insert Beavis & Butthead snickering). Seriously, are you 12 or what?

(Or as one obviously gay man said to his even more obvious partner 30+ years ago on BARNEY MILLER - "Could you, maybe, stop perpetuating the stereotype for at least a minute?!")

Not everything has to be snide, not everything has to be a dig. Can you not take that excellent and heartfelt piece of writing at face value?
