I'm exhausted and my vision is blurred.
Help me out here, GSGOP.
How does having this go to court help the proponents of Prop 8, and why are they happy about it?
Doesn't that just give the judicial tyrants the opportunity to strike it down as unconstitutional?

Because there are serious issues that should be resolved. The Left of course doesn't like to lose. But it helps to have the law settled when lower courts have to apply it to cases that will come before them in the future. The courts job is to interpret the law, not to make it.

Those in favor of Prop. 8 wanted to defend their position in court. The day after the vote, gay activists started filing lawsuits to have it overturned. So those favoring Prop 8 want to defend it, because lawsuits were filed by the other side.

Heck the gay activists are the ones who started going to court in state after state to force homosexual marriage. Then if it’s denied, they go back to court anyway.

Do gays, ACLU, etc. have deep pockets to keep going back to court? Do they want to bleed the traditional marriage people dry since everyone ends up paying their attorneys big bucks??????
