The People of California have spoken. No one person should have the power to overturn the will of the People after the vote.

If the elected representatives of the people of California vote for gay marriage, it is legitimate. The idiots in Cali don't realize that you get what you vote for in terms of your representatives in a republic. If they really cared about gay marriage, they would vote in a conservative legislature.

The "ballot initiative" process is a relic from the "progressive" era and is an asinine and anti-republican practice, an affront to the Republic that was created in 1787.

The People of California have spoken.

But we voted OVERWHELMINGLY to withhold all state services excluding life or death medical care to illegal aliens. It was immediately declared unconstitutional and look at us today.
