Supreme Court tackles same-sex marriage

When the California Supreme Court looks at the legality of same-sex marriages in San Francisco on Tuesday, it will be led by its most politically adroit chief justice in decades.

Since being promoted to the top spot in 1996 by Gov.

Obliterating the male/female marriages by allowing male/male or female/female marriges will destroy the United States.

The basis of a family comes from male/female marriages, not the official attachment of queers.

Homosexual Agenda Ping - Title should say "California Supreme Court" - got nervous there for a minute. Of course, it will eventually get to the SCOTUS, but not today!

I couldn't stomach clicking the link to the whole article, if there's anything noteworthy can someone add it to the thread?

"Innovative" my ***.

Let me know if anyone wants on/off this increasingly busy pinglist.
