This is for all of those that said the Family Protection Act was not necessary. How's it feel to have three judges spit in the eyes of the overwhelming majority.

Iowa

Iowa?

IOWA?

This is fully expected in the nutbar places like New England and California. But Iowa? This is about as disturbing a news article as I could have ever imagined.

Prop 8...make it a constitutional change and the black robes can’t be run by the lavender mafia. California doesn’t do a lot right, but we got it correct here. (this time)

so is this saying that homo’s can get married and does this not have a way for an appeal ?

could the people of that state do a constitutional amendment like we did here in FL and would that reverse this judges ruling which is pathetic

Was this based on the state or federal constitution?

Ergo polygamy and everything else must now be allowed, too.

I have no problems with gays getting married. They just have to marry someone of the opposite sex, just like normal people. No special privileges for them!

More judges added to the ‘people to horsewhip’ list.

Well past time to move the presidential primaries out of Iowa.

Amend their Constitution to outlaw it. Same as all the other states are doing.

This is scary. Unlike Massachusetts, Iowa is an agricultural breadbasket. Watch crop yields plumett now. God takes His revenge in many ways. Just ask those people burned out of their homes (or had their crops dry up from drought) in California. Russia’s crop yields plummeted too, once she became an atheistic nation in 1922.

The Iowa governor and legislature should tell the Iowa Supreme Court, in effect, “go to hell, we’re not doing a damn thing to make same-sex marriage legal”, just like old Andy Jackson did with the SCOTUS regarding the Cherokee. The Iowa Supreme Court has no “divisions”, so it cannot enforce its decrees if no one goes along.

This is how we end up with RINOs for presidential candidates. Let’s let a conservative state guide our primaries!

This also increases the likelihood that the US will be a target of Muslim terrorism. The Muslims (correctly) see homosexuality as an abomination. They won’t take kindly to rulings like this.

Well, they can’t get what they want through the legislature, even when it’s controlled by Democrats, so they have to take it through the judiciary. The back door, if you will.

When I lived close to the Iowa boarder in Illinois, we had an acronym for people from Iowa, Idiots Out Wondering Around.
