Are any of these 'unmixed-marriage types' holed up in a mosque?
Noted. ;-)
Let us hope so. There are more important issues for the courts to consider.
Sometimes having a Republican governor, even a rino, makes a difference.
YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does this mean the folks that got married in San Francisco are now living in sin?
The horror!
Phone trees throughout SF are no doubt lighting up. There will be protests at the State Building.
I don't see how this ruling helps Bush win CA in November. If anything, it gets our side complacent.
They can still elope in Massachusetts. Ketchup Boy can be best man, and Breck Girl the bridesmaid....
Oh no....I suppose the stock I just bought in old Gladiator movies is now going to take a dive!!!
I can hear the Gerbils yelling, "free, we are free, thank God Almighty, we are free at last"!
I guess that means that now she's living in sin.
SAN FRANCISCO - The California Supreme Court ruled Thursday that San Francisco's mayor overstepped his authority by issuing same-sex marriage licenses this spring. The court also voided all the marriages of gay and lesbian couples sanctioned by the city.
The court said the city violated the law when it issued the certificates and performed the marriage ceremonies in a monthlong wedding march that began Feb. 12, since both legislation and a voter-approved measure defined marriage as a union between a man and woman.
The court, however, did not resolve whether the California Constitution would permit a same-sex marriage, ruling instead on the narrow issue of whether local officials could bypass California's judicial and legislative branches.
The Massachusetts Supreme scumbags must REALLY feel isolated now that a California Court has said "no" to the activist gay sodomy lobby.
Careful! I can drink (Diet Pepsi) like a fish!
That's the real battlefield. The Defense of Marriage Act v. Full Faith and Credit Clause.
Oh, think of all the money that was wasted on those beautiful "cock" "tail" receptions following the ceremonies.....
Yeah, but the right people (meaning the left) didn't say no.
How weird - a state Supreme Court upholding the law instead of inventing it.
Fox News just reported that a group of lesbians burst into tears on the steps of the Cally SC when the decision was announced.
