“Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse, hopefully enduring, and intimate to the degree of being sacred. It is an association that promotes a way of life, not causes; a harmony in living, not political faiths; a bilateral loyalty, not commercial or social projects."
- Griswold v. Connecticut
"The evidence shows that, by every available metric, opposite-sex couples are not better than their same-sex counterparts; instead, as partners, parents and citizens, opposite-sex couples and same-sex couples are equal."
-Perry v. Schwarzenegger

Megan, I do agree with your label for this post.
Seriously. I put on my lawyer hat and read the opinion, and it is like a master class in con law. Aside from reaching the right conclusion, he did it the right way.
Happy, happy, happy.
I was so excited that _I_ even read the last 30 pages of the ruling. So great.
