California is by no means a conservative state, but I'd bet a shiny quarter that Bush would want to hold up Prop. 22 despite the full faith and credit clause in the constitution. Technically, California shouldn't be able to say that gay marriages made in Massachussets are void here, and yet the state does. The state law should be overridden by the federal constitution, but because it's one of those things that the conservatives want, I don't hear them bitching about states rights. I wonder what would happen if someon argued that point in front of the Supreme Court. Not that all states should have laws that allow gay marriages, but rather that all states have to acknowledge marriages made in other states? That would make some interesting reading. Hearing those conservative judges trip on their own words as they say state's rights don't apply here would be interesting.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02432041328889618278noreply@blogger.com
