Let's hear it for good news!

Today the California state supreme court overturned the same-sex marriage ban. Apparently, it's a basic right to form a family relationship, to marry, whomever we choose (provided they're human, of age, and there's only one of them).

That is, until the voters approve a constitutional amendment banning it more permanently. If I have anything to say about it--and, as a registered California voter, I do!--that won't happen. Let's work together to make sure the homophobes don't continue to reign.

The ruling (PDF) was handed down only hours ago, but already a few of the blogs I follow have commented:

• Of course, Dan Savage opines over at Slog, with a follow-up from Annie Wagner.


• Lisa imagines Gavin Newsom's hilarious reaction, complete with popular Internet acronyms.


• Jessica at Feministing chimes in with a quick hit.
