Monday, May 02, 2005  Gay day in Law Land.  Today's a big legal
day for the gays.  The oral arguments (which I just found out
you can view online!) in front of the SJC about gay marriage
concluded about an hour ago. They'll probably do a pretty quick
opinion, what with it being a hot button issue and all. I gather
that they won't stop any of the marriages while waiting for "the
people" to debate about gay marriages, but I may be wrong. Even
if they do freeze upcoming marriages, the Catholic Action League
is still going to have to figure out what to do with the
already-married people. I'm patiently waiting for this to become
a federal question. I just worry that it'll happen with a
conservative Supreme Court, one in which even Scalia ignores the
Constitution in favor of the party line. Honestly, I think that
he'd have to favor gay marriage if he were to do what he always
does, which would be strictly interpret the Constitution. I also
had a really good argument about why, but I can't seem to
remember much past
