Oy! There is so much wrong with the first line of this post . . . although it does correctly portray the legislative Supreme Court in New Jersey.
First, I fully support gay marriage. The civil union stuff was a cop out by the Democrats in the legislature and Governor Corzine. Yes -- New Jersey gays and lesbians were denied gay marriage by the Democrats who instead passed civil unions.
With that said, Supreme Courts don't (or at least shouldn't) pass laws as your post indicates. Instead, they should interpret laws that are already on the books (put there by a duly elected legislature and executive -- it's the heart of the checks-and-balances system).
