      <![CDATA[Honestly, Paul, the onslaught of data pointing to Americans as a whole supporting equality is leading me to think that the Prop 8 and <i>Windsor</i> opinions will end up being 6-3, with CJ Roberts joining the majority (I still think that Kennedy will author the opinions). If Roberts is anything, it is aware of the historical importance of the work that he is doing, and his place in history. <br />
<br />
Honestly, <i>Citizens United</i> wasn't really that big of a case. A lot of the cases that SCOTUS has had 5-4 conservative rulings on are things that are worthy of scolding, but will be looked upon as blips in history. <br />
<br />
These two decisions will be remembered long after the justices are all dead, and I think Roberts knows that. I think he also prefers to be associated with a <i>Loving v. Virginia</i> style decision than a <i>Dred Scott</i> decision.

      <![CDATA[Hey, hey, what happens if Jesus comes back this year? In that case I'd be the first to admit that all my librul meddling was a mistake, as I roasted in the lake of fire. Of course, if Zorp comes back first and we all burn alive in the fires of his volcano mouth, I'll say it was all life and activism well-spent.

<br />
This past November, we put a notch into the arc of history.  The US will have Same-Sex Marriage, said 3 states at the same time; and MN said they will not change their constitution to prohibit us.
