State Attorney General Bill Lockyer on Saturday rebuffed Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's demand that he force an end to San Francisco's same-sex marriages, calling the directive political rhetoric.

"The governor can direct the Highway Patrol. He can direct the next 'Terminator 4' movie if he chooses. But he can't direct the attorney general in the way he's attempted to do," Lockyer said, adding that Schwarzenegger's written directive "was a statement designed for consumption at the Republican convention."

I know how you feel. I'm here in SAN FRANCISCO!

[spokeshave]

"You got it! Excellent."

Looks like I will also vote NO on 57 and 58 as well as 55 and 56.

Is Prop 22 a law?

[sfRummygirl]

Ok, I'm thinking of gabbing a pitchfork at this point. Who's with me?

[patriciaruth]

I think the greatest FReep of all would be for us to show up with animals and insist on being married.

[onyx]

I am going to vote for whatever Arnold wants and against everything the dems want.

[sfRummygirl]

I'm right there with you. I think we should at least demo. Honestly, I am furious.

[King Prout]

hey, the good thing about a decent into anarchy is... we are a lot better armed than they are.
silver lining, and all that.

There was at least one article on FR in the last couple of days about the judge being homosexual. He had a name that looked Navajo, and he looked Indian (American style) in a photo.

The sick thing is that judges in CA must recuse themselves from any case involving homosexuals if they are members of the notorious homophobic Boy Scouts of America. Everyone should be aware of this.

A homosexual judge can preside over momentous cases such as this "gay" marriage crap, but a judge who is a member of BSA must not. In fact, they tried to fire all the judges in CA who were members of the BSA, but watered it down to recusal.

Anyone interested in nice 5 acres near the CA/OR border? Freepmail me, I'm serious.

[Publius]

Yes, Prop 22 was enacted by the voters of the state of California. It states that marriage is solely to be between one man and one woman.

If you really want to do that it's $82 and you have to make appointments now.

This sick scumbag Lockyer just declared war on Arnold. Now, let's see if Arnold has any stones.

[Prime Choice]

I'm leaving CA also.

As am I...and mine...and my in-laws.

This state deserves the fate it courts.

I just filled in my absentee ballot. I voted no on the first two propositions and yes on the last two.

[onyx]

That a girl. I think my vote will mirror yours!

I'm with you.

Well, we've got the angry mob, a pitchfork. Now all we need are torches.

"He should be recalled. Or locked-up."

My preference would be both.

My computer is gunked up. I'm gonna have to leave to defrag and clean my disk. Maybe I'll see you later.
