Stating the Obvious About An Obvious state

IF THE U.S. SUPREME COURT issues a ruling requiring gay marriage to be legal everywhere in the galaxy, would the great state of Alabama consider secession, again? Don't put it past 'em. Would anybody care? Someone, perhaps. Its like an astute observer astutely pointed out; "we all know how this story ends. It ends with gay marriage in Alabama, and everywhere else in America." (considering America's long history of military and cultural imperialism, who knows where else it may yet go?) Really, nothing could be more obvious, obvious, at least, to everyone except the Jesus guns and money crowd. The way it looks right now, Alabama and the other fourteen all straight marriage states will be brought into line with modernity only kicking and screaming, rather like the confederacy was back in 1865. Too much rampant liberalism, and you have too much change, too fast. Too much conservatism, and you have too much resistance to change, no matter how inevitable the change. And that's why, friends, the time has come for one and all to turn our hungry, weary eyes toward the solid center, towards the amelioration of moderation. Down with extremism!
