25. Oh, you know that's coming.
I still remember all the wailing and gnashing of teeth around here with the NJ Supreme Court announced their ruling in Lewis v. Harris in October 2006. I know you remember too.

If the Dems lose the House and/or the Senate this November, it will all be the fault of teh ungrateful uppity gayz. Mark my words.

23. Two federal court victories in one month, we're on a roll!
Equality is marching over the barriers the bigots try to throw up against it.

24. It is huge. We have a great federal case and two great lawyers.
We will win the next round in appeals. And we will win at the Supreme Court, too.

26. It's a great opinion
Clearly, persuasively written, well-grounded in case law (most notably Kennedy's decisions in Lawrence and Romer). It gives me hope!
