You're Screwed, California

The 9th Circus strikes again. It's significant that even back in the 1940s, the Soviet code name for San Francisco was "Babylon."

[Frohickey]

Actually, the 9th Circus..err.. Circuit had nothing to do with it.

Richard Kramer is a state judge, not a federal judge.

[calcowgirl]

"Kramer...practiced civil law in San Francisco before the then-governor Pete Wilson named him to the bench"

That explains a lot.

[srm913]

All right, the State Circus.

[xcamel]

No, I believe it was Gamorah. or was it Sodom... whaterer.. it's San Fran Syphilisco now...

[CounterCounterCulture]

You know, every time I go to California to make a speech, always in the Q&A session people ask, "Rush, what are we going to do out here?" and I say, "You're screwed. At least I get to leave and go home tonight. You leave and go home and you're still here."

Yup. That was the first questioned asked of him at the event in San Jose last month.

I mean, these people in California, it doesn't matter what they do, some judge is going to come along and tell them that what they're doing is unconstitutional, be it Prop 187, be it Proposition X, be it this law defining marriage as that between a man and a woman, some judge is going to come along and tell the voters of California you don't know what you're doing.

Rush is right.

We are sooooooooooooooooo screwed.

[Natural Law]

Being the blueist of the blue states we are screwed more often than a Thai hooker on nickle nicht.

Last thing I remember

While I appreciate your frustration over such a stupid and wrong court decision, you have your facts wrong. The decision did not come from a federal court (the 9th circuit), it didn't come from the California Supreme court and it wasn't even a state appellate court, it was just an insignificant county superior court.

I agree with Rush. Tie this judge and Ward Churchill and Whoopie Goldberg (if indeed that is her name) to the Donk Party. Let them marinate and then add Hillary's record, in small doses, through 2008.

[socal_parrot]

You're right. This Judge was the lowest rung on the ladder. I believe the people of California's will will be upheld in the long run and Prop. 22 will stand.

[Johnstone]

If the judge can find no rational purpose for limiting marriage in this state to opposite-sex partners, then what is the rational basis for limiting marriage in this state to:

-only two people?

-only human-human partners?

-only adults?

-only people outside one's immediate family?

[goldstategop]

I love California. Living here I can see it lives up to its reputation as a laboratory of nutzo liberal theories and a lesson to the rest of the country in what exactly to avoid. I congratulate Judge Richard Kramer for enlightening the American people. These liberals and their pet judges just keep making our job easier. As I said, I love California! (laughing)

this guy can't tell whether the decision was sound or not

JASON KUZNICKI,

The approval of morals by society as reflected by enacting the Defense of Marriage Act and outlawing prostitution might be beyond you, and that's unfortunate; If there is no truth there is only power.

Theft, murder, and fraud are sins. Because they are sins should not disqualify them from law. This is only common sense. The Bibe is the best guide that any society can have to establish law. This is something that rigorous immoralist intellectual frauds have to face. Moral relativism doesn't cut it. Society and law may affirm some values over others.

The Defense of Marriage Act passed in accordance with Article II, Section 8, of the CA Constitution by a very wide margin. Society tolerates but does not accept homosexuality, that the Judge says that society accepts homosexuality - when clearly the people have expressed that it does not.

The Cross in San Diego, the Seal of Los Angeles, and this. These attacks are concerted, and American citizens don't have to accept this crap. We won't.

This judge wants to condone Gay Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender nonsense and he may, but as I pointed out before, he crossed the line by perverting the law to impose his honor of barbarism on our society. Dennis Prager pointed out that homosexual prostitution was practiced in temples in antiquity. These were the days when oligarchy reigned supreme, rule by the pagan view "even when I'm wrong I'm right." Back to the cave, if we allow the trousered ape to take over our country and don't wake up to the corruption of academia that this corrupt judge is a product of.

American Law is undergirded by Judeo-Christian values. These are the values that are the bulwark of the institutions of marriage, of capitalism and the American government. Law is not made in an amoral vacuum. To imply the contrary, as this judge has done, is immoral. That is the corruption of American law and to subject humanity to the whims of oligarchs.

---someone out there in Californistan needs to remind everyone about Chief Justice Rose Bird---

[srm913]

This is why internet forums and blogs are the wave of the future. While MSM journalists may decry the lack of fact-checking in the blogosphere, the opposite is true. Whenever someone posts erroneous information, he is called on it immediately- much as I was as quickly as post #2.

[Texas Songwriter]

The state legislatures and the congress are long past due impeaching these judges. If the people want a government which santions queer marriage, lets vote on it. O, yea, they did that in 11 states last election and not one, not one passed. Do not mistreat homsexuals, but do not elevate them to special status. IMPEACH THE JUDGES. They are tyranizing this country. They are sworn to uphold the Constitution and they don't. These bastards just "free associate", like some New Age encounter group, and come up with "law" out of whole cloth. We need our country back.

[Reactionary]

"The decision did not come from a federal court (the 9th circuit), it didn't come from the California Supreme court and it wasn't even a state appellate court, it was just an insignificant county superior court."

You know liberalism is a mental defect when an insignificant superior court judge believes he has the right to "interpret" the Constitution.

Imperial hubris, anyone?

the (now bald)Eagles had it right a long time ago, didn't they !!!!!

[Boot Hill]

"an insignificant superior court judge believes he has the right to "interpret" the Constitution."

A superior court judge has both the right and the duty to interpret the Constitution. The problem in the present case is that the judge failed to interpret the Constitution, rather relying on some nebulous "basic human rights" theory which is the hallmark of leftists that reject the Bill of Rights that were penned by our founding fathers.
