OK as many of you are aware I was against Prop 8 on the November ballot. It did pass by a majority. So the people of this state obviously do not want same sex marriages. Today the Supreme Court of California upheld that vote. I commend them for it. Yes a minority is singled out and not allowed to marry. BUT this is a democracy where we count noses to find out what the laws should be. Anyone remember Davis out Uncle Arnie in? Same thing the people have spoken. Even though I do not agree with the Supreme's on this they have upheld an election that all citizens of California had the opportunity to vote in. Unlike out legislators, THEY did the job they were hired to do. If a proposition goes the way you want its all good, if it goes against you, you the minority go to court to force your minority view on the majority? That is not right in California or in Michigan. (Extra points if you get the reference). Sorry about those with same sex marriage plans you should have got it together in the open window for getting married. I am glad the Supreme's upheld the marriages that were done.
