“I assume this means straight judges in States that allow same sex can now use her as an example for refusing to perform marriages for gays?”
That would be awesome. They would be screaming about any judge that refuses to comply with the homosexual agenda for sure.

Heard this on local talk radio here in DFW Thur. afternoon.
Judges are not REQUIRED to marry couples. They are authorized to do so, and receive a small fee for the action, which yields a marriage license.
Just another whacko elected into office in Dallas.
Marrying couples is not a DUTY of any judge. They are not required to marry folks, but are authorized to do so and charge a small fee.
