And that was before the people of California rejected gay marriage and now it is in a court case in SF that will probably go to the SCOTUS.......When the people vote my friend your side loses 31-0 and growing..........sorry
Dude, you should have read the article, because this really is getting embarrassing at this point...
The bill signed by the governor also says gay and lesbian couples who were married in other states after Prop 8's passage have the same rights and benefits that California grants domestic partners.
Gov. Schwarzenegger attached the following statement to the same-sex couple law:
"As required by Proposition 8, California will not recognize such couples as 'married.' However, Senate Bill 54 will provide the same legal protections that would otherwise be available to couples that enter into civil unions or domestic partnerships out-of-state. In short, this measure honors the will of the People in enacting Proposition 8 while providing important protections to those unions legally entered into in other states," Schwarzenegger wrote.
They recognize same sex marriages performed in other states as domestic partnerships that have all the same rights as marriage. Under DOMA that is as good as gays can get it even if it is called "marriage".
