In the midst of a Democratic Blue Wave, Proposition 8 passed:

Given Obama's victory, "it's a stunning, stinging defeat," McCuan said. "This is a Democratic blue wave and standing out in one of the bluest of the blue states is this huge red result."In one of the bluest of the blue states is this huge red result."

Indeed. Traditional values are still alive and well in America.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

Wasn’t there a parental notification law on the ballot in CA as well that was defeated?

Such a ballot proposition passed by a larger margin in Massachusetts, but the Massachusetts Constitution is harder to amend, and the legislature basically gave it a pocket veto by unconstituionally refusing to enact or vote to repeal the ballot question.

“Indeed. Traditional values are still alive and well in America.”

Oh Pleeeeze...we just elected the most radical abortionist in our history....this issues “pales” by comparrison....AND, it will be over-turned by Obama appointed judges.

Today...I believe that the majority of America is non-religious/selfish/and just plain stupid. Traditional values are for the minority goup...and that would be US!

See, I think this is very interesting. Similar propositions passed in Florida and Arizona. That tells us that most people have the same values as McCain, yet they voted for Obama. That is what the Republican party needs to build on. They need to focus on the fact that the vast majority of Americans share their values and somehow convince them to support everything else. How is anyone’s question. It should be the main goal for 2010 and 2012.

I did not think for a second that a constitutional amendment would be the end of this. The same people who grounded themselves in the California constitution as interpreted by the courts to agree with them will now be saying the California constitution doesn’t matter.

I’m sick of having to say over and over that this proposition BANS nothing. It AFFIRMS the pre-existing law that was unconstitutionally overturned by the judges of the California supreme court. The chief victims of those lawless judges will be the disappointed gays who will now see their phony “marriages” invalidated.

“Mr. Takei, about that wedding ceremony.....”

“Yes?”

“I’m afraid you and Brad were never really married.”

“What? You mean we’ve been living in sin?????”

You can’t have the American people making policy.
