U. S. District Chief Judge Vaughn R. Walker has ruled California's Prop 8 banning gay marriage is unconstitutional. Walker is one of only two known gay federal judges. Ironically, his appointment by former President George H. W. Bush was opposed by some Democrats on the grounds he was anti-gay. The Constitution has been in effect for over 200 years and the Fourteenth Amendment, cited by Judge Walker, has been in effect for over 140 years. Some things, such as new technology, may not have been envisioned by our founding fathers and could need interpretation by the courts. Gay marriage isn't one of them. Being gay isn't a new invention. If states want to allow gay marriage, I believe that is their right. However, reinterpreting the Federal Constitution to mean anything judges want it to mean isn't acceptable. In order to believe there is a constitutional right to gay marriage, one would have to believe that the people who wrote the Constitution and the Fourteenth Amendment were so stupid they accidentally wrote this alleged right into law and this federal judge is the first judge smart enough to find it. That scenario is completely unbelievable.

The petri dishes are running the asylum.
The gays are doing to the constitution what they do to each other.
We need a consitutional admendment:
Marriage is between one man and one woman.
Isn’t this a conflict of interest?!
The gays are bringing their own brand of Marxism to the human relationship. Now all human relationships are equal. Try telling that to a child who only wants a mom and a dad.
“I want to marry my butt buddy so all of California must suffer!”......
Who’d have thought a pervert judge would rule in favor of perversion?
They are trying to “pack” the courts.
Take it to the SCOTUS NOW!
Time for the people to take back Law and Order from both the State, Federal Legislatures, and the Judges! Seems that laws voted on by the people have little respect. Heck, the Law Enforcers don’t seem to have to obey the laws, why should we?
Once again, a judge overrides the will of the people. How much further will the electoral process be degraded by the judiciary before it becomes meaningless?
This is tyranny, rule outside the law.
Where does a judge think he has the legitimate authority to make law, that marriage can be between same sexes? Why bother then with elected representatives and governors?
Tyrants once feared for their personal safety. They should do so once again.
One unrelated man and woman.
I’m so glad that my parents (rest their souls) were one man and one woman.
The “Pink Mafia” should have been stopped when they first appeared in power as Hitler’s “Brown Shirts” but the “tolerance” of the intolerable has compromised societal judgement to the point where one homosexual activist judge posits that two men “doing that which is inconvenient” is the same as the sacred bond of the marriage and what was done on the sacred, “Marriage Bed” of your grandparents. The altered mind alters all. Gay Marriage=Unholy Matrimony

I say it again, Frank and Mary had two, John and Bill had none......
