American Conservatism is about the exercise of personal responsibility without state interference in the lives of the citizenry..... unless, of course, it involves using the bludgeon of state power to suppress things Conservatives do not like.

sorry California in general, I just hate my state's voters, particularly their fucked up ballot propositions, and bond issues.

No sweat, it is a lot better than most states. The shitty thing is that the Domestic Partnership was damn close to marriage. I hope the initiative against gay marriage doesn't create a drive to repeal Domestic Partnerships.

Just so you know I'm not bullshitting on Domestic Partnerships:
California Family Code § 297.5.
(a) Registered domestic partners shall have the same rights, protections, and benefits, and shall be subject to the same responsibilities, obligations, and duties under law, whether they derive from statutes, administrative regulations, court rules, government policies, common law, or any other provisions or sources of law, as are granted to and imposed upon spouses.
