What’s Taking Them So Long?
April 8, 2009 by James
Several hours have now passed since the news broke that the Vermont legislature had over-ridden the governor’s veto and legalized marriage equality in the state.
Last week, when the Iowa Supreme Court issued its own marriage ruling, Religious Right groups unleashed a flood of press releases and statements decrying the decision, blasting the “activist” judges responsible for it and vowing to help the state pass a constitutional amendment overturning the ruling.
But apparently the Right’s standard talking points about “activists judges” and “the will of the people” aren’t going to work this this time, now that the Vermont has enacted marriage equality through the legislative process and so it seems as if they are struggling on how to respond.
