SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Backers of California's same-sex marriage ban urged a federal appeals court to overturn the trial judge who struck down Proposition 8 by arguing late Friday that his consideration of evidence was "egregiously selective and one-sided."
In written arguments to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, lawyers for the ban's sponsors alleged that Chief U.S. Judge Vaughn Walker "quite willfully" disregarded a 1972 U.S. Supreme Court precedent and other relevant information when he decided the voter-approved measure was an unconstitutional violation of gay Californians' civil rights.
"The district court based its findings almost exclusively on an uncritical acceptance of the evidence submitted by Plaintiffs' experts, and simply ignored virtually everything - judicial authority, the works of eminent scholars past and present in all relevant academic fields, extensive historical and documentary evidence - that ran counter to its conclusions," they wrote in their 134-page opening brief.....

Evil Fag Hollow-Eyed Commie Tyrant
Walker is one of the most vile, deranged, and wicked individuals to ever work as a Federal Judge. He is a pathetic filthy sodomite. He completely ignored the law and settled precedent to suit his own perverse agenda. What he did was so far out of the bounds of decency and common sense, that impeachment is the only option.
Impeachment is our only option if we are to change the direction this country is moving towards.
Our judiciary is out of control and all to many judges are marching in lock-step with the progressive agenda to deny citizens standing or to throw out the constitution in order to further their own agenda.
Walker is only one a all to many of those who sit on the bench who shouldn’t be judging a pie eating contest let alone laws. For a rude awakening of our judicial system see “Bench Notes” over at American Spectator.
No single judge or even panel of judges should be allowed to totally disregard the will of the people like this judge did. Impeachment is warranted.
You’re right. The people voted. To overturn the will of “We the People” is egregious.
Could you post a link if you have it handy?
The judge is a corrupt homosexual who brazenly exposed his own corruption by failing to recuse himself immediately and then presiding over a sham trial, the outcome of which he had already decided.
If this obscenity is not overturned, there is no hope.

It's not just this one judge. "Judges Gone Wild" is playing in every state. Will of the people? Natural law? Justice? Truth? Who cares. It's about leftist agendas, money changing hands, buying and selling - the rule of law is only for the little people, and we only get the short of the stick of law.

I just searched for that and can’t find it. If you can, maybe post it or a link tomorrow? Maybe it could be a whole thread, just send me the link if you don’t have time to post it.
His necktie is gay.
