IWA For Sunday 080810

Not for the reason you think.

Hey folks,

Time to wrap things up with the Idiot of the Week. Some of you are not going to be happy with me. Some of you will misunderstand me. Some of you will love me. But whatever your opinion on this whole mess, I hope you get my point.

So we all know that 7 MILLION people Voted in California and said that Marriage will be defined as a Union between one Man and one Women. This is actually the second time the PEOPLE Voted. So done deal? No. The Liberal Gay and Lesbian Activists Sued. We knew and was expecting this. Liberal Playbook Page Two, Chapter 2. "When we can not win in the arena of ideas, SUE, to FORCE our view on views on EVERYONE." That's not a Gay thing, it's a Liberal thing. Seen over and over again.

So this Case comes before Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker. A very Gay and VERY Liberal Judge. He refused to hear any one who was claiming to be "experts" on the side of Prop 8, but allows nearly ALL those opposed. He wanted Cameras in the Courtroom, so he could be seen as this great Civil Rights Player, and he WANTED a show Trial.

So how did he Rule? Yup, you know already. Prop 8 is "unconstitutional." Problem one, Marriage itself is not "Constitutional." There is NO Constitutional Right to Marry. Sorry. Just isn't. Problem two, It really IS a State issue. Not a Federal one. After this Ruling, we got this.

"The president does oppose same-sex marriage, but he supports equality for gay and lesbian couples, and benefits and other issues, and that has been effectuated in federal agencies under his control," Axelrod said on MSNBC.
So Obama wants no part in this either. {Smile} But this is a State Issue. Problem three, did this Judge NOT have a Conflict of Interest here? Some say he did. I'm not so sure that it really matters that he is Gay, but some see this as an issue. Problem 4 and the one I have the biggest problem with. One man, decided, with what appears to be his own prejudiced belief that, Marriage itself is a form of Homophobia, overturned 7 MILLION Voters. One man, said "Screw You" to The Majority of California Voters that Voted to Amend their Constitution to call Marriage, what it HAS ALWAYS BEEN, a Union between one Man and one Woman. But not according to our Idiot. Judge Walker wrote in an unequivocal and strongly worded 136-page Ruling, that Gays and Lesbians are discriminated against by Straight People all the time. He said that Marriage itself is a form of Homophobia. As a matter of fact, he said this.

"Proposition 8 fails to advance any rational basis in singling out gay men and lesbians for denial of a marriage license. Indeed, the evidence shows Proposition 8 does nothing more than enshrine in the California Constitution the notion that opposite sex couples are superior to same-sex couples."
No it doesn't. It calls Marriage what it is. Period. Then this.

"Moral disapproval alone is an improper basis on which to deny rights to gay men and lesbians. The evidence shows conclusively that Proposition 8 enacts, without reason, a private moral view that same-sex couples are inferior to opposite-sex couples,"
There is NO RIGHTS. {Sigh}

Folks, him being Gay is NOT why I chose to bestow on him the dubious Honor of Idiot of the Week. I personally couldn't care less who he sleeps with. But his decision attacks Natural Marriage. It attacks and completely ignores Voter Rights, State Rights, and the Constitution itself. It says "Screw You" to our very Republic.

You read this Ruling and you see his CLEAR Bias toward the very institution of Marriage, Heterosexuals, and Religion. He clearly comes across as Arrogant and Condescending. Thinking that he has the power to Screw over 7 million plus Voters.

You see folks, this is EXACTLY the type of thing I was talking about in the opening Article. The People Voted, the Lib Loons say "Screw You," you will just accept our agenda.

Congratulations Judge Vaughn Walker, for CLEARLY allowing your prejudiced belief to guide you into attempting to make a name for yourself, and completely insulting MILLIONS of Americans, you ARE the Idiot of the Week. I hope some one investigates YOU Sir. If you DID misuse and over step your Authority for fame and agenda, I hope you are disbarred. Thrown off the Bench. But hey, you will not walk away empty handed. You have the Idiot Award. Carry it with pride Sir. Carry it with Pride.

The Legislative Gay Marriage Movement

"You have said one of your best friends is a lesbian. So, what do you think?"

Hey folks,

OK. What is my take on the "Gay Marriage Movement across the country?" Honest question. I give you an honest answer. It is a farce. It is an attempt by a very small group of people to dictate to everyone else what they will and will not accept. They are saying that you WILL accept it, regardless if you believe in the lifestyle or not. It is not a real movement. It does not involve the "People." It is an attempt to circumvent the "People."

Of all the States that have allowed Gay Marriage to be legal, Vermont, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Iowa, now Maine, with New Hampshire appearing to be next, NONE of them were voted on by the "People." Of the States where Gay Marriage WAS on the Ballot, including California, the "People" Voted NO.

A true movement is someone, or a group of someones, going out and talking to people. They go out and promote their cause. They inform the public why they feel their cause should be recognized and it ends up being Voted on. The "People" either vote for or against. If this someone, or someones convince enough of the "People", their cause succeeds. If not, the cause fails. The "People" have the power.

That is not the case with the "Gay Marriage Movement." My problem with all this is that it is not up to the "People." It is being legislated into law, and forced, by law, to be accepted. Even places where they have tried this, have been over turned when the "People" get their legal say. Hence, Prop 8.

Now my honest opinion on the issue itself is not really relevant here. The actual issue of Gay Marriage is not really the issue for me. It is the way it is being done that I have a problem with. If the "People" in Florida {My home State} were to have voted it in this past Election, I would have accepted that this is what the people wanted, it would have become law, and it would have been the way things are. But they didn't. They voted against it.

When you start allowing a small group of people total control over the rest, and then start using laws to control people, taking away their Rights, and dictate to them what they have to accept morally, you enter into dangerous territory. That is NOT America. That is not freedom.

Will this stand in these States? Maybe, maybe not. I would be willing to bet, that they will do everything in their power to keep this FROM the "People." They will fight this being put up for a REAL Vote on an actual Ballot. Because history has shown, when it is, the "People" chose NO.
