We're Getting Married!

[Howey]

Florida will soon enter the 21st Century!

A U.S. appeals court panel ruled Wednesday that a judicial stay in Florida's federal gay-marriage case will expire Jan. 5, ensuring that same-sex couples would be allowed to marry in the state the following day.

"This is a clear victory for us because it finds the harm is being done to the people, not the state," said Howard Simon, executive director of the ACLU of Florida, which is representing same-sex couples from throughout Florida and gay-rights group SAVE, who sued to have out-of-state same-sex marriages recognized in the Sunshine State.

U.S. Judge Robert L. Hinkle of Tallahassee ruled Aug. 21 that Florida's gay marriage ban, passed by voters in 2008, is unconstitutional. He stayed his decision while Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi appealed his decision, but said the stay would expire on Jan. 5.

Nice to see both right and left, pulling together for constitutionally guaranteed equal rights for all Americans.

No matter what our differences, that is surely the one thing we can all agree on.

Right?

 

[Sunni Man]

Wrong.......

The "right" to pack fudge isn't in the Constitution. .....

It isn't really complete marriage rights until you can get a divorce too.
