Where they pass anti-familiy laws that are almost as nasty and mean-spirited as those in Kansas and Florida.
And then get slapped down:
A panel of three judges -- all of them Republican appointees -- of the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with a lower court ruling that Oklahoma's anti-family law violated the U.S. Constitution's Full Faith and Credit Clause, which requires states to honor one another's judicial judgments, including adoptions.
The appeals court also ordered Oklahoma to issue a revised birth certificate for an Oklahoma-born girl so that she is listed as the daughter of the women who legally adopted her in California.
I have to note once again the smallness and meanness inherent in laws like this, and like Florida's law banning adoption by gays. These are all incited by people who claim to follow a teacher who taught compassion, acceptance, tolerance, and other virtues that seem to be in bad odor among the Christianists.
And they really seem to hate children.
Just so you know.
