San Francisco, CA (AP) -- The attorneys general of 10 states are urging the California Supreme Court to delay finalizing its ruling to legalize same-sex marriage.
The states involved are Alaska, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Michigan, Nebraska, New Hampshire, South Carolina, South Dakota and Utah.
The attorneys general say they have an interest in the case because they would have to determine if their states would recognize the marriage of gay residents who wed in California. They want the court to stay its ruling until after the November election,

Well, computers.
PC and laptop.
Oh, darn plural marriages are taboo.
See, I knew you supported those FLDS types!!!!
Neither of your computers are over 18 and you know it.
LOL
You are wrong. The Defense of Marriage Act passed back during the Clinton years states:
1. No state need treat a relationship between persons of the same sex as a marriage, even if the relationship is considered a marriage in another state.
2. The Federal Government may not treat same-sex relationships as marriages for any purpose, even if recognized as such by one of the states.
Very good. Thanks for reminding me of that legislation.
No, no, no, no. That isn't what will happen. The gays have been telegraphing this strategy for 15 years. This is a federal constitutional attack on state laws using Article IV's Full Faith and Credit Clause to force all 49 other states to recognize at face value homosexual "marriages" (jokes) performed in a rolled 50th state.
With Massachusetts in hand, the federal suits are already in court in several states. Pace the Massachusetts law, the first thing the movement gays who got "married" that first day in Massachusetts did, was to get on the plane and fly to other states to demand that clerks of court record their Massachusetts "marriage" documents -- and promptly sue, when they were duly sent away.
Evan Wolfson drew up this strategy long ago, when he was still at Lambda Legal Defense Fund.
Google on Wolfson +Vermont and you will find a 2001 interview in which he discussed this campaign, as well as the then recently-decided Dale case, in which SCOTUS exonerated the Boy Scouts USA from having to accept pederasts as adult Scouters.
It will take amendment of Article IV to intercept and stop the homosexuals' campaign.
The Supreme Court is the homosexuals' next stop, and I've read that they've got at least one gay homer on the Court ready to help whoop them to a win similar to Roe vs. Wade and the totally outrageous Lawrence decision in 2003.
Bush is secretly on the side of the gays and has been since 2000. He's too cool to get his shirt wrinkled over stuff that is of concern to people with wrinkled shirts. Homosexual misconduct and political cabals are below the salt as far as he's concerned, as is anyone who thinks it's an important issue.
Bush has been playing to lose on both DOMA and RKBA, I promise you.
Michelangelo Signorile of the Village Voice in New York and other radical gays have been quite clear in stating that the goal of homosexual "marriage" is to delegitimize marriage itself.
They want society to disestablish marriage because the existence of marriage throws a shadow on every kind of nonmarital and extramarital liaison.
Homosexual joke-"marriage" is just a waystation.
I agree. Also see an article that appeared a few years ago in “The Village Voice” called “The Radical Case for Gay Marriage” at http://www.villagevoice.com/news/0336,goldstein,46732,1.html .
The Capitol Resource works to defend traditional marriage. Just as people favoring same sex marriage will be supporting organizations working for their cause, so we should do the same.

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said of some communists on their farm, "they look well in June. We will see them in December." We already know what life on the Left will look like after they get through decomposing society and screwing it up. They are truly impervious to life's lessons about what works, in their solipsistic pursuit of the Eternal Me.
