Gay marriage legal in California, court declares

SAN FRANCISCO - A deeply divided California Supreme Court legalized gay 
marriage in an opinion issued Thursday morning.

Wild cheers echoed throughout City Hall and other spots where proponents
had 
gathered Thursday morning awaiting the opinion, which came on a 4-3 vote.

The case stems from challenges to state law by gay couples who were
married 
in ceremonies at San Francisco City Hall in 2004, when Mayor Gavin Newsom 
began issuing marriage licenses to same-*** couples.

Legal challenges to those marriages eventually led to the high court 
invalidating them six months later. California voters already had approved

by a wide margin a measure in 2000 that declared marriage to be only
between 
a man and a woman.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger released the following statement today 
regarding the state Supreme Court's ruling on same-*** marriage:

"I respect the Court's decision and as Governor, I will uphold its ruling.

Also, as I have said in the past, I will not sup****t an amendment to the 
constitution that would overturn this state Supreme Court ruling."

The supreme court has nothing to say..... people can appeal all they want,

this is a state issue with no federal interest and Bush and Reverend Hagee

are about to swallow it.
