So we're now four for four.

A federal district court judge overturned Texas' constitutional ban on marriage for same sex couples.

That's 4 states in 3 months - Utah, Oklahoma, Virginia and now Texas (all of them stayed pending appeals to the Appellate Courts - those are the 10th, 4th and now 6th circuits respectively).

It would appear Hell indeed, has frozen over.

I now cannot conceive that the issue of marriage equality is not going to wind up on the doorstep of SCOTUS in the next 2 years, if not in the next session starting this fall.

I don't have a clue what SCOTUS is, but I am stunned that Texas has joined this! Texas??? WOW!

Here's hoping the issue makes Scalia go even more batshit and retire from the court. ;)
