Title: Court halts Calif. FAGGOT "marriages" pending appeal

SAN FRANCISCO – A federal appeals court put same-sex weddings in California on hold indefinitely Monday while it considers the constitutionality of the state's gay marriage ban.

The decision, issued by a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, trumps a lower court judge's order that would have allowed county clerks to begin issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples on Wednesday.

Lawyers for the two gay couples that challenged the ban said Monday they would not appeal the panel's decision on the stay to the Supreme Court.

In its two-page order granting the stay, the 9th Circuit agreed to expedite its consideration of the Proposition 8 case. The court plans to hear the case during the week of Dec. 6 after moving up deadlines for both sides to file their written arguments by Nov. 1.

"We are very gratified that the 9th Circuit has recognized the importance and the pressing nature of this case by issuing this extremely expedited briefing schedule," said Ted Boutrous, a member of the plaintiffs' legal team.

A different three-judge panel than the one that issued Monday's decision will be assigned to decide the constitutional question.

Chief U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn Walker decided last week to allow gay marriages to go forward after ruling the ban violated equal protection and due process rights of gays and lesbians guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution.

The Proposition 8 legal team quickly appealed Walker's ruling in the case many believe will end up before the Supreme Court.

Lawyers for two same-sex couples had joined with California Attorney General Jerry Brown in urging the appeals court to allow the weddings, arguing that keeping the ban in place any longer would harm the civil rights of gays and lesbians.

Walker presided over a 13-day trial earlier this year that was the first in federal court to examine if states can prohibit gays from getting married without violating the constitutional guarantee of equality.

Supporters argued the ban was necessary to safeguard the traditional understanding of marriage and to encourage responsible childbearing.

Opponents said that tradition or fears of harm to heterosexual unions were legally insufficient grounds to discriminate against gay couples.

Currently, same-sex couples can legally wed only in Massachusetts, Iowa, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire and Washington, D.C.

A state filled with sodomites and boy-lovers.

Being a Democratic shill means you check your humanity at the door.

Good normal people despise these asshols. God forgive me for voting for Jerry Brown in the 92 primary. Brown makes Clinton look respectable.

Dunno Jim....I'm hoping to marry my Jag.....sounds good to you right?....LOL!!!!....and I want the future SS and tax bennies as well as the right for her to collect SDI right now as she has some permanent disabilities related to the fact that her Moss box has no first gear synchro and she runs Lucas Electrics.

That's probably a big part of what your type want or not???.......dollars....honestly.....I'd personally have a "makes no nevermind" to me except I just never have gotten around to siding up with groups screeching for a cause that can't seem to bother with really honestly stating their aspirations.....thus the stupid vapidity of "freedom and justice" kinda thrown in there like my communities' annoying penchant of dealing race cards off the bottom of the deck when things go a bit askance.

BTW Jim....more'n likely the dirt-tubers are after all this "stuff" and acceptance as "normal" not for some phoney "freedom and justice" claim....but rather in attempting to legislate morality and redesign "social morays" so normal people will have forced into their lives the notion that men who sashay around the Wizard of Oz reruns better than abdul boner and dwarf are normal and that women who try to look like ugly flabby circular physiqued men are onto the wave of the future.

'Sall about legislating morality from either of the 2 sides....don't f'ing think you'll ride the fake "freedom and justice" high-horse round these parts.

Death to everybody who does not get outta my way. Below is positively the most hilariously BS overflowing comment from the resident obamunist spent-condom EVER:) "This is WHY I left the GOP in the mid 90's. ." Dwarf
