 No surprises here: “A federal appeals court today declared California’s same-sex marriage ban unconstitutional … The three-judge panel of the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 that a lower court judge correctly interpreted the U.S. Constitution and Supreme Court precedents when he declared in 2010 that Proposition 8 — a response to an earlier state court decision that legalized gay marriage [sic] — was a violation of the civil rights of gays and lesbians.“

Alas, we enter February and another “Black History Month.”
Yep, I’m white, and no, I’m not a racist; rather, I object to propaganda and pandering. And I merely echo black writers when I lament this offensive and downright silly observance. As if we can — or should — segregate the history of one race from everyone else’s.

Remember all those neocons and Republicans who cheered George W. Bush’s “indefinite detainment” of “enemy combatants”? Many of them — though, amazingly, not all — have lost their enthusiasm for trampling the Constitution now that Obama’s administration has suspended habeas corpus for American citizens, too, with the National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 (NDAA).
