The Black Republican

The Gay Marriage judicial activism in Massachusetts has not gone unchallenged within the State. A surprising reaction from a state which is traditionally overwhelmingly liberal.

It seems the people of the Commonwealth which sent Kennedy and Kerry to the Senate also understand that judges are not supposed to make laws, only interpret those passed into law by the legislature.

Also surprising is the news that the #1 political talk show in New England is the one hosted by right-wing bombast Jay Severin! Severin, who is cutting edge, while a self-described "libertarin/libertine", even angers Libertarians, yet he must have more interesting things to say than anyone else in that region or he wouldn't have those numbers. (his station also broadcasts the radio shows of Laura Ingraham, O'Reilly, and Hannity, further evidencing the New Englander's desires for non-liberal views)

Another traditionally Democratic Commonwealth, my home state of Kentucky, is also showing signs of leaving the failed liberal ways behind, as a recent poll shows support for the Bush's plan in Iraq.
