california: California needs to leave the United States. They can take their activist judges with them and set up their own military full of gays.|||This is nothing more than a carpet muncher in robes, testing the waters.|||A judge in Riverside county which is conservative is not activist. A judge is supposed to interpret the Constitution and the arguments presented and this judge has ruled on it. However, Pres. Obama is required to appeal this decision and it must also be repealed through Congressional Act only. This court decision has 60 days to be appealed which it will be. As they say, it's not over till the fat lady sings.|||The military already, and has for a long time, accepts gays. Sure their made to keep quite about it. But they are among the ranks as I type. Nothing has changed except the ability of service members to not be afraid to be who they are while they are risking their lives for the nation. Remember support our troops.|||Psh. The whole don't ask don't tell thing is a waste of time anyways. Coming from someone in the Army, I know several openly gay servicemen. It's really non of our concern anyways. Doesn't bug me, or lower moral of any sort. When it comes down to it, they'll die for us, and we'll do the same in return.|||You do understand the Constitution right? I guess not or you wouldn't ask such a dum a$$ question. The CA economy is the 8th economy in the world as of 2008. CA would do quite well on it's own but the states that sponge off CA would suffer. Careful what you wish for.|||This is about the 3rd judge that ruled all the homophobic BS this country has implemented as unconstitutional. One of them was even an uber-conservative appointed by Lord Reagan. Quit your whining.|||If the liberal activist judge in california didnt do it, another one somewhere else say in Washington would have done the same|||It gets appealed until it gets to the Supremes. That's protocol.
