"IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION
Kristin M. Perry, et al.,
Plaintiffs,
v.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, et al.,
Defendants.
/
NO. C 09-02292 JW
ORDER DENYING DEFENDANTINTERVENORS’
MOTION TO VACATE
JUDGMENT

....After considering the Oppositions to the Motion and the governing law, as discussed below,
the Court finds that neither recusal nor disqualification was required based on the asserted grounds.
The sole fact that a federal judge shares the same circumstances or personal characteristics with
other members of the general public, and that the judge could be affected by the outcome of a
proceeding in the same way that other members of the general public would be affected, is not a
basis for either recusal or disqualification under Section 455(b)(4). Further, under Section 455(a), it
is not reasonable to presume that a judge is incapable of making an impartial decision about the
constitutionality of a law, solely because, as a citizen, the judge could be affected by the
proceedings. Accordingly, the Motion to Vacate Judgment on the sole ground of Judge Walker’s
same-sex relationship is DENIED....."

I know it's possible to to squeeze Chaz BONO in a Dancing with the Stars tutu and make her win the whole sHA-BANG, BUT 98% of the people will still think she/he is a freak, just saying you force the issue, you might get crack back.

Gay Penguin couple has baby - A mommy penguin is having trouble caring for twins, so one of them is being given to a gay penguin couple. Penguin males have a natural instinct for parenting, in the wild the male penguins share the duty of incubating the un-hatched eggs with the female.

Marriage is a cross cultural constraint on evolutionary mating behavior.

Gay couples are a direct defective failure of the primary purpose of evolution. Literally 'unmarriage'.
