From the Boston Globe:

A federal judge today dismissed a lawsuit by two Lexington couples who claimed the local public school district violated their constitutional rights by teaching their young children about different types of families, including those headed by same-sex couples.

This is profoundly good news for those of us living in the Commonwealth (straight or gay), who want children taught reality rather than somebody else's fantasy.  Religious or otherwise.

The Constitutional Convention is currently in recess to see how to pick up the pieces, after caving into religious right pressure.

So the wingnuts of VoteOnMarriage have decided to file suit in Federal court against 109 members of the Massachusetts Legislature.

This follows on last week's suit filed with the Commonwealth's Supreme Judicial Court against the Legislature.  

They're trying to claim that they have the right to put whatever crazy idea up for a vote without following the process of law.  

BOHICA, folks.

I've been watching since 1pm EST, and since Travis couldn't get this moved up, they just got to #19 (third reading of one of the anti Gay Marriage proposals).  This is the legislative one; #20 is the referendum one.  19 is nastier; 20 is squirrelier, IMHO.

Joint Session Agenda

UPDATE: The ConCon adjourned after defeating 19, and before consideration of 20.

It's dead, Jim.

It's not that I don't want to boycott ABC.

But I'd have to consume their crap.   Or their advertisers' crap.  Or anything from Disney.

Specifics after the flip.

Last night we were all regaled by Joementum's antics at the Windsor DTC.

This morning he's made the front page of Boston.com.

I think it's time for the Democrats of the Nutmeg State to deal with this joker.

Update: Now it's on the front page of the Hartford Courant as well.
