Iowa Judge demands marriage licenses for gays

Just what we needed to spice up this election season—another activist judge who knows better than the rest of us:
The ruling by Judge Robert Hanson concluded that the state’s prohibition on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional and he ordered Polk County Recorder Tim Brien to issue marriage licenses to several gay couples.



Republicans just love it when they are handed a “wedge issue” on a silver platter…

This should be a good wedge issue for Republicans. They couldn’t ask for a better gift.

It’s kind of puzzling in Iowa, which isn’t exactly the liberal mecca of the USA. I wonder if Rove will get blamed for this? Maybe it’s Bushes fault…

Iowa has a DOMA law, but not a marriage amendment.

I’m pretty sure they’ll be getting one soon though…

I never thought I would wish to live in Iowa. It is nice to see that some people still have compasion for others. I think if gay marriage should be banned, then every person who has ever cheated on their spouse should not be allowed to marry, anyone who lies or who judges another should not be allowed to voice an opinion. If the so called biblical laws should be enforced through government so should these!

This can about guarentee that the people in Iowa will be making a law on same sex marriage. Great these kind of things favor conservatives.

I know, it’s almost as if the republicans bribed this guy to sabotage the Iowa caucus for the democrats.
