    C'mon - that wasn't an answer.

    My point is that the legislation against discrimination in the workplace based on sexual identity should fail at the Federal level in order to avoid this exact type of situation. The Federal protection doesn't currently exist for made up sexual identity - but it might soon. Then the Supreme court may use the same excuse to find the current marriage laws unconstitutional. People should know what they support.

    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
