Surprise noone has brought this up yet.
The California Supreme Court has struck down the ban on gay marriage. John Cornyn has hinted that this may renew the fight for a gay marriage amendment. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080515/ap_on_re_us/gay_marriage |

Leave it to the godless whackos in California to completley bastardize every good Christian principle this country was founded on I don't really care about the religious part, but I do agree with two of the dissents in this ruling. The judicial system is in place to make sure that the Constitution is upheld. Marriage is not guaranteed by the Constitution and therefore should not be decided by the courts. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

Marriage is not guaranteed by the Constitution and therefore should not be decided by the courts. But that's exactly what the courts did... It's the voters that imposed the ban, and the courts that struck it down. They shouldn't have been deliberating on it at all. |
