Save the Date: Arguments for Justice


Friendly reminder that the oral arguments for Iowa's gay marriage case are tomorrow, December 9th.


It should be a really tough case to decide. On the one hand you have the kind of justice and equality that are consistent with the principles laid out in our state's constitution, and on the other you have arbitrary discrimination and backwardness driven (it would appear) only by contempt for our fellow man.


Oh wait. I guess it isn't that tough.


I haven't cheered this hard for Iowa since the Penn State game. Go Justice.


And for some further reading: here's the Chicago Tribune's write-up, and here's Iowa Independent's recap of how we got to where we are.
