Since neither Schwarzenegger nor Brown were willing to stand up for the voters of California, The California Supreme Court will now decide whether anyone has legal standing to defend Prop 8 before the Federal 9th Circus.

The SAME California Supreme Court that started the whole enchilada to begin with.

“On May 15, 2008, the Supreme Court struck down California’s existing statutes limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples in a 4-3 ruling. The judicial ruling overturned the one-man, one-woman marriage law which the California Legislature had passed in 1977 and Proposition 22.”

They not only didn’t stand up for the voters, Brown asked to switch sides and Schwarzenegger said he hoped the state would lose!

Both should have been thrown out of office, but the entire state government structure is broken.

It's scandalous that neither the Governor or the Attorney General will defend the directly expressed will of the voters. Maybe it should be required by law... time for a new initiative?
