    Did the Supreme Court's Gay Marriage Ruling Just Destroy Colorado's TABOR Law?

    In its decision regarding the 2008 California ballot initiative that prohibited gay marriage, the Supreme Court ruled this morning that citizens who supported the initiative have no standing to defend it in federal court.
