Pro-Obama, Pro-Prop. 8.
There had to have been a huge number of folks who voted for Obama and Prop 8 in California. Also interesting that the constitutions of two other states will be similarly amended. One of them, Florida, was carried by Obama this year as well.
I think it is fair to say that it is the Republican party rather than conservatism itself that was repudiated in this election cycle. Good luck President Obama, may you govern from the center as you have promised to do.

Hardly. Whatever one thinks of the gay marriage issue itself, this is at the very least a slap to the CA Supreme Court's face.
Let the voters decide, not 4 judges.

Big ol' red herring. Or a long-dead horse. Pick your cliche metaphor.

Here is the article:
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lano...ition-8-e.html I've got news for you, UtahDan. This has nothing to do with conservative vs. liberal. Mormons found a strange bed fellow--Obama's base.
