Mr. Lockyer dismissed the recall as a "publicity stunt" by Republicans in advance of next week's state primary. He said he had no intention of arresting Mr. Newsom, whom he described as a "principled" man who was wrong on the law.

How long would it take for Mr. Lockyer to arrest Mr. Newsom if he were, say, closing abortion clinics or handing out concealed carry permits willy-nilly?

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg of New York said through his spokesman last night that he did not support a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage.

Mike, you don't get to vote on it. Now go flounce off somewhere and sulk.

FYI: My latest e-mail to Lockyer this morning titled "3rd Request -- Please Do Your Job".

As the state's Attorney General, your primary responsibility to me as a citizen of California is to see that the rule of law is upheld, including that elected officials do not abuse the power of their office to break the law.

Your inability and unwillingness to take immediate action to stop the illegal actions of San Francisco's mayor is most disappointing to me.

Despite his using the power of his office to break the law, I don't expect you to arrest the mayor, but neither do I expect you to ask the courts to do your job and allow the state-sponsored anarchy in that city to continue beyond today.

Think about the damage you are doing to the rule of law you say you hold so dear. Get off your political behind and do your job, Bill.
