Victory for our republic. The court has said if changes are to be mandated it must come from the legisltive process not by judge shopping.

"...argued the ban violates a constitutional prohibition against granting privileges to one group of citizens but not another"
Not so. Homosexuals have the exact same right to marry somebody of the opposite sex as anybody else; their refusal to exercise that right is on them only.

CORNHOLE ALERT""devastating setback to same-sex marriage proponents," America can only hope that this is the start of a trend of such rulings, and the Sex Deviates-R-Us crowd will get out of everyones' faces.
To: Aussie Dasher
Beth Reis, one of the plaintiffs, and her partner of 29 years, Barbara Steele, had planned to apply for a marriage license today and be married in a ceremony Sunday. What a shame.
Instead of getting married, she's left to go pick up a pizza and batteries.

"We're reeling. We were going to get married today." Well, run it by the courts again, but by then you all will be off with new partners. And it still will not be legal.

I must be wired wrong. I can't fathom, no matter how hard I try, to understand how opposite sexes can be attracted to each other. I view this as a perversion.

Five-to-four: an awfully close call! But that's New York, Georgia, and now Washington state in the last three weeks.

Uh, possibly, at it's most basic of instincts, it propgates the continuation of the species. Whereas homosexuality propogates nothing but a log of STD's and strange looks.

"and we must be ready to defend marriage anywhere, anytime, and at all costs," I agree in spirit, and in fact, but he's being a bit dramatic with the language there...
To: phoenix0468
OOOOOOOOPS........... I meant SAME SEX. Now I'm red in the face. BTW, sans my screw-up, my post was serious. Thanks for catching it (I think?).

Homosexuals have the exact same right to marry somebody of the opposite sex as anybody else You cannot accuse the proponents of "gay marriage" of being too logical.

"The court dealt a "devastating setback to same-sex marriage proponents," asserted Mathew D. Staver, founder and chairman of the public-interest legal group Liberty Counsel."
Big giant grin!

To: Aussie Dasher
Just think, 35 years ago marriage was pushed as being irrelivant in a relationship. Now it is important to be married.
But ONLY if you are GAY.
