Like the prop 8 ruling, the health care debate will probably hit the current USSC and the 5-4 conservative majority will strike it down as unconstitutional. If you want to lower health care cost then follow the Texas lead and limit frivolous law suits. The result, a double digit drop in cost the first year!

It was exactly their intention............to prevent a tie so that a decision could be made.

Be careful what you wish for. If for example the appeals court rules against the judge and the plaintiff does not get a 6-3 ruling overturning it the appeals court decisions stands and the movement looses again! If you remember a few years ago Bill V said that a simple majority should not be able to win and then several states including Florida passed the same law by a supper majority and now it will be even longer before it ever has a chance again.

Asking? They now have no choice. All they did is let Government intrude into more peoples lives.

I guess you missed the second sentence? This WILL more than likely end up before the PRESENT USSC. Yeah, I head that said the last thee votes

In the end the pro gay marriage movement picked the wrong time to fight this battle. The 9th is the most overturned court and more than likely this will end up before the present USSC which with the 5-4 conservative majority they will lose. It was also a setback for marriage in general because all it did is allow more government intrusion into our lives. I would be willing to bet if the movement would have been to get government out of marriage all together this would have been a done deal long ago.
