Whoa... IOWA Supreme Court legalizes gay marriage?!?!?!

Iowa Gay Marriage Ban Ruled Unconstitutional

I never would've expected it from Iowa!

Massachusetts, sure, California, of course. But IOWA?!?!?!

Wow. And Iowa's not the only state that made gay marriage news this week. Yesterday, Vermont's house also passed a bill legalizing same-sex marriage, though the Republican governor vows to veto it.

The battle for marriage isn't over. But we're making progress, state by state, and the winds of history are at our backs!
