Well, there's finally some good news for Republicans in Congress.
The NJ Supremes stopped short of saying that gay marriage was allowed. They
ruled that gay couples were entitled to the same rights and benefits that
opposite-sex married couples have and that it was up to the NJ legislature to
decide how to bring that about; it could simply allow 'civil unions' but not
marriage.
But, yeah, the Republicans will make of this all they can.
