Prop 8 hearing
Mar. 5th, 2009 01:16 pmJust finished listening to the hearing. Other than thinking Ken Starr should be in prison for his persecution of Clinton, not spouting fundamentalist nonsense with an obsequious grin in front of the Supreme Court of CA, my take is the Court are likely to say the measure is valid, but not retroactive. I don't think they bought Ken's retroactivity based on the voter guide; but I don't think they could see anything in law that was wrong with the initiative. (There is plenty wrong with it on its face, but that's more of a problem with the way ballot measures are allowed to change the constitution in CA).
