Podcast: Q&A on the mixed-up Prop. 8 ruling

Wednesday, June 3, 2009, 2:58 pm |

You asked, we answered.

In response to the pro-family Californians who sent in questions about the mixed-up Prop. 8 ruling, I’ve recorded a special podcast that addresses the “who, what, when, where, why and how” of it all.

Please listen to the SaveCalifornia.com Radio Show for answers to these and other important questions affecting our children and grandchildren:

  • How could we vote for Prop. 8 and the judges still validate gay “marriages?”
  • Can the ruling be appealed? When do we vote on the judges?
  • What does the California Constitution and the Bible say judges should do?
  • What about “equal protection” and “due process”?
  • Will homosexual “marriage” be on an upcoming California ballot?
  • How do I respond to questions such as, “How does gay marriage hurt you?”

Get a grasp of why the Prop. 8 ruling went the way it did, what’s next, and what you and your friends can do to strengthen marriage and voter rights in California. Listen now to the SaveCalifornia.com Radio Show.

Reporting the truth about the Prop. 8 ruling

Thursday, May 28, 2009, 9:03 pm |

Millions of Californians and Americans were amazed that not all of Prop. 8 was upheld Tuesday by the California Supreme Court. They can’t understand how a constitutional amendment that states that the only marriage that is valid is between a man and a woman somehow allows homosexual “marriages” to be valid too.

People have good reason to be angry. By allowing some 18,000 homosexual “marriages” as role models for impressionable children, and by refusing to uphold all of Prop. 8, an arm and a leg have been cut off the special institution of marriage in California.

Here are some of the news reports that SaveCalifornia.com was in after the ruling was issued. We didn’t include all the radio we did, such as the Brian Sussman Show on KSFO San Francisco, the Rick Roberts Show on KFMB San Diego, the Jesse Lee Peterson Show, etc.

In everything we said, we expressed gladness that half of Prop. 8 was upheld.  But we also said how frustrating and disappointing it was that judges legislated from the bench when they struck down the other half of Prop. 8, regarding last year’s homosexual “marriages.” See the news reports.

Prop. 8 ruling: ‘An arm and a leg cut off marriage’

Tuesday, May 26, 2009, 11:29 am |

Today’s ruling by the California Supreme Court that some 18,000 homosexual “marriages” are valid, despite the vote of the people to prohibit such legal recognition, has frustrated and disappointed pro-family citizens who voted for true protection of marriage licenses for a man and a woman.

“While it was good that the majority of the justices ruled only man-woman marriages could be performed after Prop. 8 passed, it’s wrong and unconstitutional for the judges to permit counterfeit marriages in clear violation of Prop. 8,” said Randy Thomasson, president of SaveCalifornia.com, a statewide pro-family organization that has been fighting for natural marriage in California for more than a decade. “An arm and a leg have been cut off the natural institution of marriage in California.”
