Supremely Foolish: Cal. High Court Refuses to Grant Delay

I think they know exactly what they are doing. I think they are counting on the amendment to either fail in November, or that if it DOES pass, the SCOTUS will knock it down in part due to the "marriages" licensed between now and and whenever the issue makes it to the SCOTUS. After all, if people has a "right" to those marriage licenses, how can that be taken away after they have them?

And if the California situation can't be taken to the SCOTUS, the licensing being extended to out-of-state couples who come to California to get "married" will at least "force" changes in marriage licensing in other states when the couples return to them, and will quite possibly reach the SCOTUS through THOSE cases.

They know exactly what they are doing.

Many states have voted to keep marriage. How many have voted to change marriage licensing? It's all about the courts, and it is very scary.

As I have remarked before about liberals generally, California courts "will force upon us by law what they cannot convince us of by argument." That's what libs do - they are bullies.

Thanks for the comments. You both make good points, and unfortunately (for us and the nation) they are accurate. Liberals would rarely score a policy victory if they had to depend (as they should have to) on the legislative process, and such a plan as you've mapped out, Ken -- as far-out as it may seem -- could come to pass in this crazy day and age.

Thanks again for writing -- and do spread the word about The Jason Drexler Journal!
