Chris Christie was a prosecutor in another life long ago. He knows his way around a courtroom. He knows the inner workings a layman would not. Johnny thinks it is in the best interest of the Garden State that gay marriage stay the law of the land because 2013. But the governor, who is opposed to gay marriage as are a very vocal minority, need a way to look good.
So, in appealing Superior Court Judge Mary Jacobson's ruling, send forth your worst lawyer to represent the state. Give us Dan Fielding. Send forth Louis Tully.
You tried. Besides, if any of this bluster is trying to provide cover for a 2016 presidential run, you are so not getting the votes of the people in the primaries you're aiming for here. They're supporting a pale rider on a white horse should he promise them no more goobermint Obamacare, gay marriage and teachers unions.
Look, New Jersey is for gay marriage and it is simply not right to put someone's rights up for a vote of the general populace. There would be pockets in this land where women and minorities wouldn't be voting if you left these things up to a vote.
And send in Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer for the state.
Ah, the "activist" Governor fights on! Damn the Legislature. Damn the Courts. It's his way or the highway.
ReplyDeletePerhaps grossly obese, arrogant, and bombastic politicians in New Jersey should also be denied their basic civil rights?
But then again, "who am I too judge", as the Pope recently said.
Sadly, it seems that the family of men (and women) still has its orphans and outcasts --at least in he eyes of people like Gov. Chris Christie.
It's time for a new Governor in New Jersey.
A Governor for ALL the people.
Righteous!
