SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- California's attorney general has again come out against the state's same-sex marriage ban, this time telling the state Supreme Court the proponents of successful ballot initiatives do not have the right to defend their measures in court.

Kamala Harris, a Democrat who succeeded Gov. Jerry Brown in January as attorney general, submitted an amicus brief Monday in the ongoing legal dispute over the voter-approved ban known as Proposition 8.

A little bit of trivia, this joke of an AG shares her name with pro wrestler, James “Kamala” Harris.

It's only in the California Constitution. I guess that doesn't count according to the CA AG.

Since the liberals don't believe in the rule of law, maybe the only thing that counts as a defense for this guy is whether it's politically correct.

Kamala Harris is a woman. I love California but I'm thinking we just need to get a big hammer and chisel and start at the border with Mexico and head north.

Maybe its time for the people to decide she has no right to fight the ban.

Why is she not being hooted and booed from office?

These people are IDIOTS!

isn’t this why california law was written so the if the policians refuse to defend something they don’t like then the petition backers have the black letter standing to defend in court.

IOW equal protection of votes under the law only for government approved referendum outcomes.
