The Rabid Grammarian

It's Marriage Equality week at the Supreme Court. The Justices will decide the fate of Marriage equality twice this week. People have been camped out at the Court for 5 days (despite snow) in hopes to to hear the arguments today and tomorrow.

Here's hoping that the Court will do the right thing and decide in favor of equality, especially striking down DOMA, which if anyone had read the Act (and I have) you know it's unconstitutional.

Today, March 26, 2013, the Court will determine the legality of California Prop 8, that limits marriage to opposite sex couples.
Tomorrow, March 27, 2013, the Court will address DOMA, the Defense of Marriage Act, signed into law by President Bill Clinton (aw Bubba, how could you?) that he now says was a mistake to have ever signed. DOMA limits the definition of marriage to opposite-sex couples (and yet in something like 20+ states you can marry your 13 year old first cousin.)

Although I'm pretty sure we don't have a chance with Scalia or Thomas, here's hoping the rest of the judges aren't so addled they do the right thing and uphold Marriage Equality on both fronts.
