Ms T.
If the supreme court decides against us on prop 8, that will be the death knell of the 14th amendment... a task that the republicans have been trying to accomplish for some time now.
My fear is that SCOTUS will make a limited decision with a state by state resolution, when I am hoping for a decision that will have a much broader reach. The reason I was so excited about the approach that was taken in this court action is that it is based on equal protection under the law. If forbidding marriage to same sex couples is not legal in California (under the 14th amendment to the Federal Constitution) then it follows in my mind that forbidding these marriage is against the constitution in all states.
The only reasonable decision in my book.
Smooches,
Keri
