This is a sad country indeed when a third of the Supreme Court votes to uphold such an asanine law.
Scalia: ``The court has largely signed on to the so-called homosexual agenda,'' Scalia wrote for the three. He took the unusual step of reading his dissent from the bench.
``The court has taken sides in the culture war,'' Scalia said, adding that he has ``nothing against homosexuals.''
Sure you don't. I think sides were taken when Texas and other states decided to pass laws criminalizing sodomy. Oh, and in the case of Texas, Olkahoma, Kansas, and (big sigh now) Missouri, just homosexual sodomy is a crime. Thomas also had something weasly to say, telling the court that it was probably not a good use of law enforcement resources. Well no shit it's not. I could have sworn though that law enforcement resources wasn't the issue here.
Well, those three lost today. So I can't complain too much.
