California High Court Voids Same-**** Marriages
About 4,000 Couples Affected by Ruling
By DAVID KRAVETS, AP
SAN FRANCISCO (Aug. 12) -- The California Supreme Court ruled unanimously Thursday that San Francisco's mayor overstepped his authority by issuing same-**** marriage licenses this spring. The court also voided all the marriages of gay and l*****n couples sanctioned by the city.
The court said the city violated the law when it issued the certificates and performed the marriage ceremonies in a monthlong wedding march that began Feb. 12, since both legislation and a voter-approved measure defined marriage as a union between a man and woman
The court, however, did not resolve whether the California Constitution would permit a same-**** marriage, ruling instead on the narrow issue of whether local officials could bypass California's judicial and legislative branches.
Chief Justice Ron George noted that Thursday's ruling doesn't address ''the substantive legal rights of same **** couples. In actuality, the legal issue before us implicates the interest of all individuals in ensuring that public officials execute their official duties in a manner that respects the limits of the authorities granted to them as officeholders.''
The justices also decided with a 5-2 vote to nullify the nearly 4,000 marriages peformed before the court halted the weddings on March 11. Their legality, Justice Joyce Kennard wrote, must wait until ''the constitutionality of California laws restricting marriages to opposite-**** couples has been authoritatively resolved through judicial proceedings now pending in the courts of California.''

Wow. I'm very surprised at this, actually. I didn't know that a leftist court was even capable of upholding the law...even when it's so self-evident.

Seriously, are you capable of ANY independent thought?

I'm going to write a screenplay someday and make a character like Confused and you'll play him. Who do I call?

The only thing I will ever learn from you is how to lower the collective IQ of any given forum.
For someone who claims to be on the right side of the law you sure don't do well with rules do you?

Realpoor is not law. The new rule (which was the result of YOUR unruly actions) is against the basic philosophy of realpoor. You ruined it for everyone. Congratualtions.

A psychiatric ward if I ever agree to play a character as one dimensional as Confused.

I don't blame you Paco for not understanding retaliation vs. retardation. The line might be blurred in your mind so I'll let you slide.

I think you should try out for Look Who's Talking 4. You're perfect for the part.

I will reply with:

This may appeared blurred in the mirror, so I'll let you slide.

The day you make it stick that I ruined Realpoor is the day you can have it. However, your attempts to find a new low watermark go boldly into the future.
Honestly if anyone is responsible for RP sucking ass I'd say that was your job. You just don't see how people would rather never set foot in this place than to ever have to deal with the fact that people like you are alive in this world (thus the Survivor bannings and the slaps on the wrists). You do know that most people here do not like you right?
For someone who is a drag on the community you sure know how to take advantage of liberal rules on a message board, I guess that would make you the most "liberal" person here.

Who are you and what have you done with Confused?
The word leftist or liberal didn't appear in that last post and it wasn't remotely political.
If you have him tied up and at gunpoint so you can post on his account don't do anything rash.
Just put the gun to the frontal lobe and shoot crossways. We don't want you missing because you were standing too far back.

oh my god
you guys want me to bump an old topic so you can have this discussion in one neatly made thread instead of spacing it out between 50+?

I'd prefer a new forum.
Maybe an arena forum where at the good fights go and where there can be a poll on the top asking who is getting owned?

Read between the lines. I was criticising his leftist attitude and instructing him to accept my wisdom into his heart.
