The justices uphold the same-sex marriage ban but also rule that the 18,000 gay couples who wed before the November vote will stay married. The decision is sure to spark another ballot box fight.

Reporting from San Francisco -- The California Supreme Court today upheld Proposition 8's ban on same-sex marriage but also ruled that gay couples who wed before the election will continue to be married under state law.
The decision virtually ensures another fight at the ballot box over marriage rights for gays. Gay rights activists say they may ask voters to repeal the marriage ban as early as next year, and opponents have pledged to fight any such effort. Proposition 8 passed with 52% of the vote.

(((It really is sad that you invalidate your own argument with such a ridiculous statement!
(((Children can't drive, smoke, vote, etc - that is such a pathetic argument.)))
Well question #1...what does smoking, drinking, or voting have to do with this?
Nope, correct poster.
Personal attacks when there isn't a valid point.
I just wanted to pop in and let you know that your arguments are completely understandable, and very compelling to those of us who can think logically. It's interesting to see how many people have decided for you what should or shouldn't be on your mind (and many others for that matter).
Keep up the good work.
Sensitive?
No...accurate.
LOL!
