Proud to be an Iowan?

As many of you know, the Iowa Supreme Court issued a decision that effectively strikes down Iowa's version of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which has been part of the Iowa Code for over ten years. The action of the court has essentially removed the main obstacle for homosexuals to request marriage licenses. Now, anyone knows that the action of the court cannot legalize anything but only make judgements as to the Constitutionality of an existing law, which then generally requires the jurisdiction affected, in this case the State of Iowa, to address the problems with the law. However, in no way does this allow for or even more require the State to issue licenses for marriage of anyone not already called for in state law outside of the DOMA law. Because the Democrats are in favor of this abomination to right and wrong, there will be no effort to fix the problems and protect God's design and common sense when it comes to marriage. My solution, let's counter-sue, call in your dog Fido, and ask why you cannot marry him. You see where this is going! We cannot allow 5,000 years of tradition and man's oldest institution to be trampled.
