{OT} the will of the people

It's good to see the people of Massachusetts have stood up and said
enough is enough. Maybe there's still hope for that state to come to
its senses and even eventually be rid of the rest of their abominations.

Lawmakers in Massachusetts, the only state where gay marriage is legal,
on Tuesday voted to advance a proposed constitutional amendment to ban
gay marriage, a critical step toward putting the measure the 2008
ballot.

The proposed amendment, which would define marriage as between one man
and one woman but ban future gay marriages, still needs approval of the
next legislative session before it can go onto the ballot.

The supporters of the amendment collected signatures from 170,000
people in an effort to get the question on the ballot.

No one ever accused us of having good sense.
After all, we keep electing Kennedy and Kerry, as well as John Olver and
Richard Neil...

This will never make it past Daval Patrick's leadership. Mitt Romney steps
down...uh, tomorrow, I think?
