Almost all the organizations within the Beltway yesterday couldn't condemn quickly enough the court suit by the Equality Foundation which would take Proposition 8 to the Federal Courts. Does anyone really believe that someone, somewhere in California on their own would not challenge Proposition 8 to the Federal Courts? Did they really believe they could control it from Washington in these passionate times? What is amazing is that it is not some fringe challenge to the Federal Court, we are being given a top notch, star studded challenge. We should be celebrating this powerful team instead of discouraging them. We hear the lament "now is not the time" and "we can't win". If we waited until we were certain of victory most likely I would hear about it in heaven because that is how long it would be for the possible to become practical.
Exactly how I felt the minute I heard that Olson and Boies were taking it to the top. We have to stop STOPPING ourselves and get it DONE.
Now IS the time.
