Once again we see that to Democrats the vote that reflects the will of the people only counts when they get the results they seek.

“In a surprise move, state Atty. Gen. Jerry Brown asked the California Supreme Court on Friday to invalidate Proposition 8. He said the November ballot measure that banned gay marriage “deprives people of the right to marry, an aspect of liberty that the Supreme Court has concluded is guaranteed by the California Constitution.”

It is the attorney general’s duty to defend the state’s laws, and after gay rights activists filed legal challenges to Proposition 8, which amended the Constitution to ban same-sex marriage, Brown said he planned to defend the proposition as enacted by the people of California.

But after studying the matter, Brown concluded that “Proposition 8 must be invalidated because the amendment process cannot be used to extinguish fundamental constitutional rights without compelling justification.”

Backers of Proposition 8 expressed anger at Brown’s decision not to honor the will of voters, who approved the measure in November. “It’s outrageous,”said Frank Schubert, campaign manager for Proposition 8.

Proposition 8 foes, however, were elated. “Atty. Gen. Brown’s position that Proposition 8 should be invalidated demonstrates that he is a leader of courage and conviction,” said Geoff Kors, executive director of Equality California.

In his brief to the high court, Brown noted that the California Constitution says that “all people are by nature free and independent and have inalienable rights,” which include a right to “privacy.”

Which has nothing to do with the a Gay Marriage ban. This isn’t an issue of one’s so-called right to be gay (there is no such right in the constitution, as there isn’t any right covering “sexual preference), but an issue of civil order. Simply put the people of California have enough common sense to see marriage as the union between a man and woman.

Once again the people of California have spoken by a majority and once again activist politicians seek to overturn that will. Perhaps the people of California should begin to exercise that will the next time Brown’s up for election. In any case voters should organize and file a mass lawsuit claiming the violation of their constitutional rights and have to go to the Supreme Court.

It’s time to stop this type of activism in this country. Nothing more endangers our country than to legislate the will of the few over that of the majority.
