The Left's intolerance and lack of grace may get them everything they didn't want than if they had respected the will of the people and left Prop. 8 well enough alone. What comes around goes around.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

[skeeter]

BIG freakin mistake. This will only prolong the protest & encourage the queers.

If the court overturns the will of the people the implications will be far reaching and - not good.

First, if judges weren’t causing trouble by overruling the people, there would have been no marriages to begin with.
#2 If they turn 8 down, there are going to be some recall of judges.

[IrishMike]

Judges are not there to serve as an amplifying mouthpiece for the angry mob i.e. all that “will of the people crap”.

At least that’s how liberals see the United States

The Berkeley professor misreads Justice Kennard—

She would deny the petitions WITHOUT PREJUDICE to refiling them to include the issue ‘gay’ marriages already performed.

[fwdude]

Approved by 52 percent of voters, Prop. 8 restored the definition of marriage - a union of a man and a woman - that the court had overturned May 15.

Whatever else the article says, this quote by the Chronicle is just unbelievable. Truth - from a liberal paper for a change. Is this really from SF?

SAN FRANCISCO -- The state Supreme Court plunged back into the same-sex marriage wars Wednesday, agreeing to decide the legality of a ballot measure that repealed the right of gay and lesbian couples to wed in California.

I'm not an expert on Calif. constitution so corrections welcome.

Regarding California's so-called right for gays to wed, there was never such a right to be repealed in the first place, a right expressly protected by California's constitution. The so-called right to gay marriage referenced in the OP was actually created by judicial fiat in blatant defiance of majority will.
