I MUST REMEMBER THAT!
Of course there are politically correct rallies. What else would we expect?
Does everyone realize that the issues before the court are different this time? Last time, the issue was whether our marriage laws were unconstitutional. This time around, the issues relate to whether proper legal procedures were followed in adopting Proposition 8 and putting it on the ballot.
If the judges apply the law, there should be no question that Prop. 8 was vetted and approved to be on the ballot properly. And then the voters approved it in a free and fair election.
But if the judges are hell bent on imposing homosexual marriage, and want their name in a future history book that they were so enlightened that they made a statement for civil rights, then this case would go the other way.
Pray for lotsa rain, which is in the forecast in the Bay Area.
I’m praying for pea sized hail. That will get those wimps attention. It just stings a little. :D
Not only that I hear Sean Penn is trying to get Arnie to pass the *Harvey Milk Bill*
Dsigust once again...
Fire and brim stone worked fine on Sodom & Gomorrah.
Eve of Justice was served last November 8th... get over it and quit whining.
Sore losers.
If the cup of Wrath is full, they might get what S & G got instead.
