Et tu, Maryland?

(The Maryland Court of Appeals has overturned a lower court's decision finding that the state law limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples is unconstitutional.  There is still hope that the legislature will repeal it, I suppose, but for now the law stands.)

It's not the first time. It may not be the last time.

D'ya know that MD won't recognize domestic partners either? Even heterosexual ones? For the same reasons?

This is why I have no health insurance, I note.

I can't decide if the domestic-partnership thing makes me think "Hey, at least they're consistent[ly assholish] -- only married is married and they're really not kidding", or "Oh, for christ's SAKE". Probably a bit of both. See also Virginia, Ohio.

Don't you find that first sentence ... convoluted? It took me three tries to get it. It's like C++ code or something. Or German. You have to go to the end of the sentence and work backwards to get the meaning.
