    What are you talking about? It's always excellent news for Republicans, even when they're losing.

    Yep, providing contraceptives actually reduces the number of abortions. Sex is free to do, so a lot of people do it. Making it safe for cheap/free is the best option of cutting down on abortions since outlawing them didn't stop them. But the GOP can't get that through their "limited government" head.
    If you're curious about the specifics of the statutory disagreement, it's a relatively easy to thing to google. It wasn't over a comma or a period.

    It was about the way a period made a single sentence read out of the context of an entire bill. It was always doomed to fail and was an example of the utmost silliness in GOP lawsuits. That said, when I say doomed to fail, I mean 'doomed to fail if the court behaved like proper custodians, instead of radicals'.

    Ironic that he's such a fan of passages of the Bible where Sodom & Gomorrah get taken out by fire, and that's the method he chooses.

    If we really want to get technical, it was about whether something already ruled legal was still legal. It is

    You know, the hardcore bible thumpers told me we would be attacked by rainbow dragons, brimstone would fall, hurricanes and earthquakes would ravage the earth when gay marriage was legalized in USA. Well, where is the chaos and destruction.

    But happy this got passed.

    "A successful leader on economic issues"?

    This is a man whose casino went bankrupted. Think about it. How does a casino go bankrupt?
    I know. It's practically a license to print money. There's a reason why they say, "The house always wins."

    But you know how you go bankrupt with a casino? By wasting money on all the decorations surrounding said casino; by gold-plating EVERYTHING; and by putting your name up in huge gold letters in every part of the casino so no one will ever forget who owns the casino.

    In the interest of transparency I would have been totally down with rainbow dragons.
