Lockyer, an elected Democrat who is a potential candidate in the 2006 governor's race, has said he plans to vigorously defend state laws barring gay marriage.

That is a bald-faced lie. Lockyer got an early heads-up from SF Mayor Gavin Newsom and he STILL chose to do nothing!

Lockyer should be impeached for this active malfeasance!

"Hallye Jordan, a spokeswoman for Lockyer, said the attorney general was treating the governor's letter as a request ..." -- Sacramento Bee, 2/21/04

After reading this I sent the following to the state attorney general's office:

Dear Mr. Attorney General:

I note in this morning's Sacramento Bee that your office is considering Friday's directive from the governor as a "request".

Do not be confused, Bill. The governor is directing -- not requesting -- that you do your job and represent the large majority of Californians in putting an end to the illegal actions of San Francisco city and county officials in positions of civil power.

I expect and demand that you take immediate, effective action. I am certain that the governor doesn't hover over you each day to see that you do your job or that he issues many directives to you personally, so just get off your politically-sensitive butt and do your damn job.
