i'm going to go with "huzzah."
I like equal protection even better than I like full faith and credit. (Though full faith and credit's not bad, either.) Let's hear it for SCOTUS - I'd say for Kennedy and Breyer and Ginsburg and Sotomayor and Kagan, but it was a different arrangement who told the defenders of Prop 8 that defending that law wasn't their business and the district court order overturning it would stand*, so I'll just say let's hear it for the whole court. (Maybe except Alito and Thomas.)

*Mind you I'd have liked a ruling that had implications for other states - if, that is, such a ruling had said all bans in all states are unconstitutional - but we'll get there. It just seems that because of the intricacies of who was arguing about this case, this wasn't the one where that decision was coming down.
