Protecting Marriage from Never-Ending Attacks


There was a lot of angst from homosexuals and their "useful idiots" last year over the South Dakota marriage amendment (Amendment C), especially why it had that second sentence prohibiting "quasi marital relationship[s]."

That language was included so as to prevent future and fresh attacks on marriage that used as-of-yet unthought of terms for things that imitate marriage (e.g. civil unions, domestic partnerships, etc.). (They knew darn well what "quasi marital" meant, which was why they derided the term so much.)

Now California gives us a fresh lesson in why it was so important to spell out the intention to protect marriage from counterfeiting, and plug any potential loopholes.

The recent statements by California governor Schwarzenegger and Attorney General Jerry Brown that the term "marriage" is obsolete in California have highlighted that and other attempts to get around the will of the people in their lust to obliterate marriage and family as we know it:

Californians voted in 2000 on Proposition 22, which reads, "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California," approving it by a significant margin.

However, the Democrat-controlled Legislature gradually has created "same-sex marriage by another name" by legislatively granting the rights of marriage to same-sex duos.

Then in 2005, the California courts said Proposition 22 protected only the word "marriage" but not the rights of marriage. The decision said Proposition 22 did not specifically protect marriage rights, so lawmakers could award the rights of marriage to homosexual partners.

"Because the plain, unambiguous language of Proposition 22 is concerned only with who is entitled to obtain the status of marriage, and not with the rights and obligations associated with marriage, (state law) does not add to, or take away from, Proposition 22," the court said.

Unfortunately, these folks will twist any language they can get their hands around to demolish marriage in their quest to legitimize homosexual behavior. Judicial oligarchs perverted a law to protect marriage into meaning nothing at all.

Defenders of marriage and family will have to be tireless and shrewd in order to win this lengthy battle...but the fight is worth it.
