If their vows end up being nullified, "There will be a psychological toll," Zartler said. "I don't know if I can handle the disappointment."

Just act like it never happened. Everyone else will...

It never happened. They can blame it on local officials who forsook their oath to uphold the law in order to be politically correct.

Homosexual Agenda ping.

It's actually sad to read the statements of homosexuals living in a fantasy world. A looking glass world of unreality.

Looking for love in all the wrong places (and I mean that literally...)

If anyone wants on or off this ping list, ping me!

And why exactly do they need us to be witness to their nuptials? I could care less what they do in the bedroom but I do not want to be coerced into giving it the Good Housekeeping Seal Of Approval.

There's no limbo about it. There's no such thing as a homosexual marriage under the law. End of story. If these people want to be anxious about whether their fraudulent document is actually fraudulent or not, that's their problem, and it exists only in their own heads.

I would imagine that the married couples could sue San Francisco and its mayor for Fraud. Paying for worthless pieces of paper. Though I guess they could be used for rectal rehabilitation.

"honosexuals" and "gay" are too PC. We need to use the term "queer" and stop playing into their quest for "forced acceptance"

Gay men have more health problems than straights, even excluding AIDS. The point of gay marriage is to make the "significant others" of employed gays eligible for company health coverage. This would be yet another factor inducing companies to leave California

I guarantee HRC or Lamda Legal will be suing based on the issued licenses.

This will keep homosexual sex in the news for years to come.

However, now the tide has turned. It can now be show that the claims of "just love" is just propaganda crap. The debate can be moved into the direct behavior of homosexuals, the effect of homosexuals on themselves, the dangers of homosexuals recruiting our vulnerable youth and the fact it is a learned behavior.

Homosexual advocates can't hide the ugly truth any more.

Corporate counsels, employment law consultants and human resource departments already are devoting time and energy trying to figure out where they stand.

They should sue Newsom (personally) for damages.

homosexual is not PC. Homosexuals hate being called "homosexuals". It publicly identify's their sexual fetish.

queer is an attempt to obscure like "gay".

"It's hard to explain the feeling of waking up on Saturday and looking over at the person lying next to you and realizing you are now married to that person," Wiedman said. "It's simply a wonderful feeling."

I'm sorry but that's really twisted, sicko, perverted, disgusting, and, most importantly, completely against God's law.

So, is San Francisco Sodom or Gomorrah? Maybe both?

The story is trying to establish that homosexual marriage "is here". Just more sob stories as homosexual propaganda.

I would imagine that the married couples could sue San Francisco and its mayor for Fraud.

They'll spend their money first to join into a class action lawsuit against the state. If each of the 3,000 gay couples kicked in a thousand bucks apiece (probably not too tough for them to come up with in an affluent city with decent paying jobs), there'd be three million bucks to hire a very sharp attorney, who'd also like the mega dollars worth of news coverage.

On the article, State Farm probably will have to relent before long on the insurance rates, I've wondered why they have been able to get away with discrimination based on marital status so far. I've had it explained to me that singles spend more time "running around" than marrieds, how does that affect a committed homosexual couple who are no longer hitting the gay bars?

PETA want some towns to change their name. I suggest San Fiasco - for the city by the bay - until the big one hits...

Can't sue the state. Can sue City and mayor that didn't follow the law.

Can't sue the state.

Why do you assume this? People sue states all the time, especially on civil rights issues, which the plaintiff's case will state this as.
