They could take it up or dismiss the suits. We'll see if anything comes out of the California Supreme Court by day's end.

Tell me how a constitutional amendment could be considered unconstitutional. Isn’t that what amendments are for?

[Amendment10]

The lawsuit is one of six cases filed directly in the state high court in San Francisco to challenge the Proposition 8. All six lawsuits contend the measure is a constitutional revision, not an amendment, because it strips a minority group of a fundamental right.

Regarding the claim that gay marriage is a fundamental right, has Reynolds v. United States (1878) been mentioned in conjunction with Prop. 8?

Although I disagree with certain aspects of the Reynolds opinion, given that the USSC decided that polygamy was not a basic right, then gay marriage cannot be considered a basic right as pro-gay groups are advocating.

“Four Bay Area counties are the latest to join the legal fight to try to stop state Proposition 8. The Board of Supervisors for Alameda, Marin, San Mateo and Santa Cruz counties have approved joining the lawsuit filed in the California Supreme Court by the cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles and Santa Clara and Los Angeles counties.”

Where are the Supervisors of the counties where Prop 8 passed?? As usual, conservatives are playing nice instead of fighting for their views.
