Calif. to Seek Same-Sex Marriage Ruling
MyWay News

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - California's attorney general plans to ask the state Supreme Court on Friday whether San Francisco's approval of same-sex marriages violates state law.

Monday's announcement by Attorney General Bill Lockyer came after San Francisco filed a constitutional challenge to California's prohibitions on same-sex marriages.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger urged the attorney general last Friday to "take immediate steps" to get a court ruling to make the city stop the gay weddings.

The answer, pardon the pun, is very straightforward: it is not discriminatory to define a marriage as being a civil union between a man and a woman.

A gay man may marry a woman, and a gay woman may marry a man, just as may be if the parties to the union were heterosexual.

What's next? Marriage between man and his best friend, the dog?

The AG seems to have realized the route he was going down was political suicide. He was failing to carry out the duties of is office. He got the message.

Friday it is. The homosexuals want a homosexual or a lesbian judge to decide the matter. Isn't that special?
