Haven’t Californians voted down gay marriage three times already? This will (probably) be the third time the courts have thrown out the PEOPLE’S VOTE—the third time the CALIFORNIA COURTS HAVE DISENFRANCHISED CALIFORNIA CITIZENS.

Sorry to yell, this just gets under my skin.

*sheesh* Why do we bother having elections, when the courts can do all the social engineering they want without reference to voters?

I think it's worse than that. They liberal judges are saying that they can decide what the State constitution says at any time (without limits) and the public has no say in the constitution. At the risk of using Mark Levin Retoric, that is ‘Tyranny:’

To paraphrase “their” bumper sticker:

“I want my democracy NOW!”

They are for democracy until the people vote for something they don’t like. Then they are best friends with judicial tyrants.
