The Real Animosity Shines Through

Richard Rosendall nails it.


"When we go to the courts we are told it is undemocratic because the legislature must decide. But when we went to the legislature in California, Governor Schwarzenegger said no, the courts must decide. And now in Massachusetts, having gone both to the courts and the legislature, we are told we are undemocratic because the people must decide directly."



Referendums are about as lost as most blue-ribbon panels for getting at what is a just society.

"Marriage" is hardly a constitutional principle, like freedom of speech, etc. From that perspective, amendment referendums on such issues are most unwanted.
