WHAT RULES THE RULE OF LAW?

I agree Patrick, but where do we go from here? Recall Arnold? We've got to do something now, before this gets more out of control...and before his drivers licenses for illegals is signed....

[abigail2]

Now upholding the law is a good thing. But Arnold’s statements reveal the ultimate vacuity of his philosophy. For a leader is expected to lead -- particularly morally. And if he cannot support the idea that marriage between a man and a woman is the rock upon which society sits, then he and we have a problem.

Upholding the law would be OK if it was done swiftly and firmly!!

Thanks for the ping!

Thanks for the Bump!

Here's another bump for you!

The left in this country has so long wanted to turn America into the Weimar Republic that the blowback to the sordid MTV Superbowl halftime show positively floored them. They were stunned again when "The Passion of the Christ" turned into such a floor-stomping mega-hit. They're not back in their caves licking their wounds though. They're preparing for the counter-attack: more public officials marrying gay couples, more gay priests, more special interest propaganda inserted into the curriculum. The logical extension of putting condoms over cumcumbers in sex-ed class is putting them over the real thing (and then adjourning to floor mats in a darkened gym "to practice safe sex in a loving socially-conscious way.")

Upholding the law is done selectively.......with a selective degree of swiftness and a selective degree of firmness.

It’s funny how evil is having its way. Everyone knows San Francisco has wantonly trampled the law. Homosexuality, the ultimate rebellion against God and nature, has been encouraged to flourish, and it has become an ugly political beast indeed.

He's right. Figures like Ahnold are an embarrassment because they are either ignorant, immoral or both. Either Ahnold knows he is breaking his oath of office or he does not know. If he knows, he is dishonest, immoral and a criminal. If he does not know, he is pig ignorant and doesn't deserve to be a meter maid let alone a governor.

Being politically savvy must not be the strong suit of this writer. What is Arnold supposed to do, lock up the city government of San Francisco? Yeah, that would do really well for his election campaign. This man is not supported at all by state legislators, the attorney general's office, nor by the state's major mayors. To go in and arrest a prominent figure for the liberal side would be political suicide. The comparisons to Nazi Germany and all other facist regimes would continue until election day. Face it, he can't too strong a stance without alienating an entire state. His position was strengthened with the approval of Propositions 57 & 58 and he did not want to act until those economic issues were addressed. That legislation, approved by the people of California, proved that he could have ballot measures apporved simply on his word, greatly strengthening his position in the state. Patience is a virtue of all good leaders.

In the mean time, marriage is a state rights issue, and having the freedom to make that decision state-by-state is what this country was founded upon. Creating a constitutional ban, thereby consolidating federal power even more, is something that should scare everyone. Freedom is what this country was founded upon, not marriage.

[abigail2]

YES! But where are all the Christians who rushed to see The Passion now! I think that is the problem. It's time for us to rise up en masse and kick the bums out once and for all!

Well put...dataman!

[janetgreen]

and before his drivers licenses for illegals is signed....

I wonder how many Californians voted for him after he said he wouldn't give drivers' licenses to illegals? His opinion changed after his meeting with Bush. Votes don't count anymore here in sunny CA.

[Consort]

At this point in time, it looks like the bad guys are winning in most of the states. Arnold can't trump the courts or the legislature if they are co-equal branches, or can he?

[SAMWolf]

People tried to warn about Arnold being a RINO.

What Rules the Rule of Law?...you are either abiding by God's law which means biblical standards or you are abiding by the ruler of this earth - Satan.

Fortunately, Jesus Christ has overcome the ruler of this earth and will eventually claim his title. History shows us that the last cat out of the bag before destruction is rampant homosexuality. Just check out Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis for a view of what is coming to America. Forty percent of the women under 45 have committed murder at least once by killing their own baby. It certainly is as the days of Noah and Lot.


Genesis 19: 13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord, and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.

Genesis 10:24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven.

Then Jesus says in Luke 17:29-30 But the same day that
Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

" . . . marriage is a state rights issue,. . . "

No, it is a man/woman rights issue. The state only has power to describe the parameters. Age, bloodline, etc.

"The comparisons to Nazi Germany and all other facist regimes would continue until election day."

I would argue though that the "Nazis" in this case are not people like the Governor, who is weak and reluctant to enforce the law, but rather the gays and their liberal allies who are openly flaunting it.

I wholeheartedly agree, but perception is 100% what matters, and calling people who say they are "fighting for their rights" Nazis is not the most politically intelligent thing to do. Those viewed as fighting for "human rights" can easily tag the term Nazi onto anyone who opposes them, whether it be true or not.

I'm not saying that I agree with the gay marriage, in fact I totally oppose it, but it is not an easy situation for the governor.

from bigpete_53 " . . . marriage is a state rights issue,. . . "

from Eastbound "No, it is a man/woman rights issue. The state only has power to describe the parameters. Age, bloodline, etc."

That's what I'm arguing. The state is who should set those parameters, not the federal government.
