SCREW THE PEOPLE!
Hey folks,
Told you so. This really should be a non-issue. The PEOPLE Voted. The people in California said NO to Gay Marriage. That should be that. But I told you that they were trying hard to find a way to screw the people. Enter California's Attorney General Jerry Brown. According to the AP - Calif. AG urges court to void gay marriage ban
SAN FRANCISCO – The California attorney general has changed his position on the state's new same-sex marriage ban and is now urging the state Supreme Court to void Proposition 8.
Jerry Brown filed a brief Friday saying the measure that amended the California Constitution to limit marriage to a man and a woman is unconstitutional. He says it deprives gay couples of a fundamental right.
WRONG! On so many different levels I might add. One, there is no Right to Marry. There are laws put forth to limit it. But there is NO Constitutional Right to Marry. Second, THE PEOPLE VOTED and nearly EVERYONE sees Marriage as a Union between one Man and one Woman. Third, actually there is no need to discuss further than THERE IS NO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO MARRY.
After California voters passed Proposition 8 on Nov. 4, Brown said he would fight to uphold the initiative in his role as attorney general, even though he personally voted against it.
So this guy, who CLEARLY wants the Will of the PEOPLE thrown out, who Voted AGAINST Prop 8, now says he will be fair and wants to challenge YOU?
He submitted his brief in one of the three legal challenges to Proposition 8 brought by same-sex marriage supporters.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The sponsors of Proposition 8 asked the California Supreme Court on Friday to nullify the marriages of the estimated 18,000 same-sex couples who exchanged vows before voters approved the ballot initiative that outlawed gay unions.
The Yes on 8 campaign filed a brief arguing that because the new law holds that only marriages between a man and a woman are recognized or valid in California, the state can no longer recognize the existing same-sex unions. The document reveals for the first time that opponents of same-sex marriage will fight in court to undo those unions that already exist.
"Proposition 8's brevity is matched by its clarity. There are no conditional clauses, exceptions, exemptions or exclusions," reads the brief co-written by Kenneth Starr, dean of Pepperdine University's law school and the former independent counsel who investigated President Bill Clinton.
The campaign submitted the document in response to three lawsuits seeking to invalidate Proposition 8, the constitutional amendment adopted last month that overruled the court's decision in May that had legalized gay marriage in the nation's most populous state.
Both Attorney General Jerry Brown, whose office is scheduled to submit its own brief to the court Friday, and gay rights groups maintain that the gay marriage ban may not be applied retroactively.
The Supreme Court could hear arguments in the litigation as soon as March. The measure's backers announced Friday that Starr, a former federal judge and U.S. solicitor general, had signed on as their lead counsel and would argue the cases.
Proposition 8's supporters assert that the Supreme Court lacks the authority or historical precedent to throw out the amendment.
"For this court to rule otherwise would be to tear asunder a lavish body of jurisprudence," the court papers state. "That body of decisional law commands judges — as servants of the people — to bow to the will of those whom they serve — even if the substantive result of what people have wrought in constitution-amending is deemed unenlightened."
ABSOLUTELY! So is Government. The people Voted. It is a done deal. But this IS the NEW Liberalism folks. This is the type of thing you have to look forward to with Obama, Pelosi, and Reid. You do not want Amnesty? SCREW YOU. You do not want oppressive taxation? SCREW YOU. You do not want the Government telling you what to drive, the temp you keep your house, what you can and can not do, in the name of saving the planet that is, SCREW YOU.
The cases are Strauss v. Horton, S168047; City and County of San Francisco v. Horton, S168078; and Tyler v. State of California, S168066.
Congratulations Jerry, YOU are the Idiot of the Week. Just the thought that you would listen to these Radicals and attempt to subvert the Will Of the People, shows that you are not worthy of holding the office. You Sir should remember who it is you actually work for.
