From the BBC Web site today, a story about “US state legalises gay marriage“:

“Connecticut’s Supreme Court has overturned a ban on same-sex marriages, making it the third US state to legalise such unions….

“The governor of Connecticut, Jodi Rell, a Republican, said she did not agree with the ruling but would uphold it…. The governor said she believed any attempt to contest the decision, either legislatively or by amending the state constitution, would fail.”

Hooray for Connecticut.
