off topic but relevant:
It's interesting how the conservatives these days make laws and call special hearings to serve their own purposes yet when the courts strike these laws down its the judges who are activists. You see it with gay rights, steroids, and now Shiavo just to name three big issues.
Judges do not campaign, politicians do. Judges do not have to answer to the public in the way a politician does. A true 'activist' judge would not remain on the bench for decades while Republicans and Democrats come in and out of office.
Back on topic:

The fact that he remains married to her so that her family cannot impose their will against her wishes shows that he loves her very much. If he simply didn't give a fuck he would have divorced her 15 years ago.
