OldCoastie commented on the blog post Pentagon Internet filtering blocks major LGBT, political blogs (including PHB), lets hate groups through
If I had to guess, I’d guess the Pentagon is does not do the actual set up on its filter… sounds like the same company that does our school district filter – same kind of issues.
Many years ago I heard it is Christianist organization that is a great big company…
Odd decisions it makes…

OldCoastie commented on the blog post Perry v. Schwarzenegger 9th Circuit Oral Argument Liveblog
a report from Rick (via Prop 8 trialtracker) at Cooper’s post trial press conference:
Cooper says that he respects the other side and regrets that they do not respect him/his arguments equally. He says that in order to find for the plaintiffs, the courts must find tens of millions of Americans who voted against marriage equality. Cooper said the other side are demeaning and ridiculing. He continues by arguing that all Californians are victims if their elected leaders do not carry out the law, and that voters are sovereign. This is laying grounds for anti-court hatred.
wow.
