No ~ this affects a single court district.

It probably guarantees a Republican sweep in the Fall election, and quite possibly even the weakening of the Democrat lock on California's Hispanics.

The risk for the gay blades who take advantage of the injunction is that if it is lifted, and his is appealed, their marriages just disappear. Of course that's not really a risk for them since they'll just go to the nearest gay bar for dates, as per usual.

I know it affects the single District, but if appealed and upheld as far as the Supreme Court, it will be the law of the land.

Even as a District Court ruling it becomes precedent for other courts.

Prop 8 passed (52%) despite Obama getting 61% and the dems winning 34 (USHOR) seats compared to 19 by Repubs.

Many voters do not equate homosexual marriage to dems. This is due to the fact many dems openly deny supporting homosexual marriages (Of course, they wink, wink, which many voters do not pick up).

Also add to the fact that the Judge who overturned Prop 8 was appointed by a Repub President (Correct me if I am wrong).

How will you equate the democrat Party with this decision? (Dems will cover and say “We must respect the process etc...”)

You're right. Liberals may be cheering this travesty, but between what that hack judge did with the Arizona law and this -- both voter approved measures -- there is going to be a lot of anger.

That anger will only be worthwhile if we use it to elect conservatives, not "Republicans" willing to vote for a leftist pig like Elena Kagan.

The people are seeing the country destroyed from within by the liberals and are fighting back. Unfortunately, Obastard will still have two more years to destroy it by presidential fiat and through the many agencies he is the head of. Ad to that the dozens of liberal activists judges on the courts FOR LIFE and you see the enormity of reversing 80 years of liberalism. To do so would require that the Senate reject ALL liberal selections for federal judges, remove dozens of others, and Congress to repeal dozens of laws that created hundreds of government agencies. And we both know that neither is going to happen for a very long time, if ever.
