With California's supreme court considering exactly the same thing for pretty much exactly the same reasons this is good news.
Thanks Dan!!!
DES MOINES, Iowa – The Iowa Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling Friday finding that the state's same-sex marriage ban violates the constitutional rights of gay and lesbian couples, making Iowa the third state where gay marriage is legal.
In its decision, the court upheld a 2007 district court judge's ruling that the law violates the state constitution. It strikes the language from Iowa code limiting marriage to only between a man a woman.
"The court reaffirmed that a statute inconsistent with the Iowa constitution must be declared void even though it may be supported by strong and deep-seated traditional beliefs and popular opinion," said a summary of the ruling issued by the court.

Politicians... you just gotta love 'em. Shit, they change their minds so fast and so often, their bodies never do catch up. And as we all know we must be politically correct on everything. Politicians=assholes.
Changing their minds as often as their pants?
