that 13 is her lucky number.

Now, we just need to get the other 37 states to get on the justice train.

and several more allow for unions or partnerships then how will the Freepers ever get the 38 states they seem assured they'll get to ban gay marriage? Denial isn't only a river in Egypt.....

that the can overturn the Supreme Court by forcing votes in enough marriage equality states and then passing their anti-equality marriage Amendment. Either that or take up arms for another civil war. And its not just one or two, there are literally dozens of these nutcases utterly certain that they can reverse history.

What an excellent way for them to spend their time, money and energy!

And to "13 states": Salut!
