The Republican governor reiterated... "for me, marriage is between a man and a woman. But I don't want to ever force my will on anyone." :

Force his will? Prop. 8 was passed by the people, you twit.

He has no problem “forcing his will” on every ballot initiative he supported. Including bond initiatives I’d rather my money not be paid into...

In fact, I’d prefer not to pay CA income tax, but somehow Gov. Schwarzenegger and the state of California have imposed their will and force upon me and I thereby must.

Why am I even wasting my time pointing out the inane fallacy within his sentences above???...I suppose its just a way to express my frustration.

agreed - Prop 8 was forcing the will of the people and nothing to do with the Governor’s will. Is his will more important than the people’s?

“But I don’t want to ever force my will on anyone.”

Then why grant marriage licenses at all? If you don’t want the government forcing anybody to accept some relationships as special, why recognize man/woman couples OR gay couples?

Just a RINO to say there are no moral absolutes. I hazard a guess Red Arnold believes in nothing except personal self advancement. Marriage is a universal precept and its essential to the welfare of society. We impose our values on society every day. The only question is what values will govern it. The man is a complete idiot.
