Rachel Maddow has raised an interesting question: now that Dr. Robert Spitzer has formally debunked his own 2001 study that claimed highly motivated men and women could modify their sexual orientation, what are the ramifications of this with regards to the Prop. 8 Trial, which may battle its way all the way to the US Supreme Court?
Defendants of Prop. 8 heavily hinged their argument, in court, on Spitzer's study and the "evidence" that gays and lesbians could simply change their orientation, thereby meaning they weren't being denied rights. They could simply choose to be straight, and get married.
Now that their main "proof" of this is kaput, what does that do to their case?

Rick Santorum has such a hard on for Kirk Cameron. It might have taken him a few weeks to react to the news (slow is a word that certainly applies to Santorum), but man, did he get excited when speaking about his anti-gay bedfellow with Piers Morgan over the weekend.
