Mimi Walters On Gay Marriage Ruling

This came over the transom earlier from Assemblywoman Mimi Walters:

Mimi Walters Calls Supreme Court Ruling on Gay Marriage a Travesty for Family Values 

SACRAMENTO - Today, in response to the California Supreme Court ruling that struck down Proposition 22 on a 4-3 vote, Assemblywoman Mimi Walters called the decision a travesty for family values.

"The Supreme Court today blatantly disregarded the will of Californians to protect the sacred institution of marriage. The Court stated that it could not 'find that the retention of the traditional definition of marriage constitutes a compelling state interest,'" Walters said.  "I could not disagree more strongly with the Court's ruling today.  Marriage between a man and a woman is the foundation of our society, and the Court's action is a travesty for family values."

"Today's decision completely ignores the will of over 60% of California's voters who approved Proposition 22 eight years ago," Walters continued.

The California Marriage Protection Act, an initiative in circulation that has gathered 1.5 million signatures and will appear on the November ballot, will write into the California Constitution that the only marriages recognized in this state are those between one man and one woman.

"I pledge to fight the Supreme Court's decision to allow gay marriage in California by working to ensure the passage of the California Marriage Protection Act this November," Walters concluded.

Unfortunately for Assemblywoman Walters, she won't have an opportunity to even marginally decide the future of same sex marriage, so her statement is, at best, now irrelevant, no?

She looks awful dykie for someone who claims she is a repug. Mimi is a rough lookin customer; there is nothing feminine about her! She comes on like a transgender who went the wrong way. Remember she who protests the most.....Is it MEME or WeWe? She only looks out for her own selfish interests. Her politics have been buried with Bush in the same graveyard. Mimi would take you back to the dark ages; back alley abortions, Jim Crow, you got it! Vote for Gary Pritchard 08 and don't hesitate. Send MEme to Repug Rehab.
