"Our civilized society and legal system is based upon a respect for and adherence to the rule of law. The City and County of San Francisco's unfortunate choice to disregard state law and grant marriage certificates to gay couples directly undermines this fundamental guarantee," Schwarzenegger wrote. "As Attorney General, you have the authority to take legal action to require the City and County of San Francisco to comply with the laws of the State."
Schwarzenegger was scheduled to appear at the California Republican Party's convention Friday night, and his spokesman said the governor planned to touch on the recent events in San Francisco in his speech to party members.
"You have, at this point, nearly two weeks of flouting of state law. The governor feels that we've come to a point where we're starting down a dangerous path and it leads to anarchy at some point," said Rob Stutzman, Schwarzenegger's communications director. "It's time for this to end."

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger ordered California's attorney general Friday to take legal action to stop San Francisco from granting marriage licenses to gay couples.
In a letter to Attorney General Bill Lockyer, Schwarzenegger directed the state's top lawyer "to take immediate steps" to get a definitive court ruling declaring what the city is doing to be illegal.
"Our civilized society and legal system is based upon a respect for and adherence to the rule of law. The City and County of San Francisco's unfortunate choice to disregard state law and grant marriage certificates to gay couples directly undermines this fundamental guarantee," Schwarzenegger wrote. "As Attorney General, you have the authority to take legal action to require the City and County of San Francisco to comply with the laws of the State."
Lockyer has been a loose cannon...what will he do?

"It's time for this to end." You can bet your last nickel that, when this little gambit is shut down, the resulting gay riot in San Francisco is already planned. Communists never miss a trick.
It was time for it to end last Tuesday morning. Lockyer won't do a damn thing and Schwarzenegger knows it. The California State Attoreny General controls all law enforcement in the State. The only enforcement tool Arnold has is the National Guard.
