AFA calls for impeachment of Judge Vaughn Walker

This is why I am so damn tired of American politics. Conservatives NEVER see reason. I wonder if they even read the Judge's report, including that opinion that civil rights for citizens guaranteed by the constitution is NOT UP FOR VOTE, rather a GUARANTEE.

Also, there's another serious problem with the minds of conservatives who define homosexuality by "physical conduct", and by that same ignorance, they will continue their blind-minded arrogance.

 

Normally I'd agree with this guy - when it comes to his anger that a single judge went against the wishes of a state's voters. However when it comes to civil rights, opinions and votes don't matter. He says this case never should have entered the courtroom? How about this discriminatory proposition never should have even been put to a vote. When people are going to vote to deny others a civil right - when it's not even going to effect themselves - that's wrong.

This guy is the president of the American Family Association. Had Prop 8 been voted against in the very first place, he would have joined in the effort in pushing for it to be passed, just like we pushed for it to be overturned.

 

A side note, are they just throwing mud accusing him of being homosexual?

 

I think so.

I personally love their whole "the right to govern themselves" because to me this makes me think about a blog post I made. IT was about how I don't understand why people vote to bring people into government and then if something ticks them off about what was voted on they decide they want to vote on it. To me it's just like...why don't you just vote on everything then? Let the government do what they are suppose to do, and if you don't like something don't be a dick and say "ok I want to vote on this", instead just tell your representative you didn't like it. It's just hypocritical that they don't want to vote on little things so they get their government officials do it, but soon as something comes to a vote that they don't like they get all "I want the vote not our officials". It just...all of it is such bs.

 

AFA, cry me a fuckin river.

 

this is such a typical bigot thing to do. once they dont get theyre way they gotta pull some kinda show like this outa their ass to try and make up for their loss. oh well, AFA. clearly people dont wanna deal with your bullshit anymore. deal with it

 

the good thing is, the judge cannot be impeached without proof that he has overstepped his bounds.

a fundementalist hate mongering, pro-corrective-rape, anti-religious freedom as long as only they get religious freedom, family-molesting group like the AFA are wholely and substantively incapable of reasoned logic or rational, and clearly are behaving like incompitant, petulant spoiled 4 year olds.

Any law professor will tell you that walker stayed within the bounds of the law when he gave a detail, properly thought out and supported ruling, conclusion, and factual findings.

AFA has never truly existed within the realms of law and ethics. instead, they have been the one of the biggest, most outspoken groups for rewriting the constitution to strip freedoms away from non fundementalist-chirstians, and turn it into a document whoes whole existance is to promote facist discrmination, and religious dictatorship.

That, and they have ties to white supremecist and anti-semetic groups.

 

Lol I hate American politics hahaha he will never vet "impeached" they're losing the battle and they're trying to fight back

 

Has no one ever heard of 'Checks and Balances'?!
Ugh. These loons need to learn about the judiciary system in the states and why it is important (ex: protecting rights of all individuals against those who have a serious stick up their behind).

EDIT: Also, what the hell is a 'practicing homosexual'? Sneaky use of words to make us sound like a cult.

ARGH. THIS MAKES ME SO MAD. Excuse himself?! Conflicted interest? But say, a conservative judge (oh wait, he IS conservative) with a history of being very reluctant to provide gay rights (sound familiar?) would be so unbiased! Right? Ugh.

 

they have always gone out of their way as a organization to circumnavigate the constitution. Technically, they infringe upon the constitutional right of every american as found in 'freedom of religion' and 'seperation of church and state'. By forcing their bigotted, narrowminded, corrupted religion agenda on others, they are infringing upon the rights of others to have a goverment free from religious interference, as the founding father's fought, and were willing to die for.

Of course people like AFA, and Maggie gallager are going to call for his impeachment, call him a gay-socialist-soviet invader, and liken him to the nazi's... because history, morality, and american values are what AFA, NOM, CWFA, FRC, WBC, and others vehemently fight against.

There is a reason it is far right fundie christians are the majority source of attempt to rewrite history into something it isent.

That is why all of a sudden, islam is this murderous cult, but christianity in its history has killed tens of millions more in the name of a chirstian god. Islamic extremisem is fairly new compaired to christian tyranny.

like ann coulter and glenn beck, the nazi sympathizers are always the first to declare everyone else but them to be nazis.

 

The great irony in all of this is that Judge Walker's appointment was protested by gay rights organizations.

 

Although Walker's actually gay, he seems to be fundamentally conservative, having been appointed to the bench by Reagan, and (according to his wikipedia article) representing the US olympic commitee in a lawsuit regarding the use of a "gay olympics" title. This guy seems to check his opinions at the door when it comes to law. It's not because he's gay that he overturned Prop. 8, it's because prop. 8 is unconstitutional, the voters cannot decide whether it's okay to discriminate against any group. Any other judge should and would do the same if they based their decision on the constitution and not personal opinion.

I don't think the AFA has any case at all because this judge has proven over his career that his sexual orientation has no relation to his court decisions. As was mentioned, democrats including the often clueless Nancy Pelosi didn't want this guy to be appointed because of an apparent anti-gay bias.

 

put it this way. AFA, I dont think, really ever wins court fights. They always scream, cry, and wet themselve, pretending they are victims of bigottry because they dont get what they want... but the problem is we wouldnt need court fights to uphold the law if it was not for the fact that these AFA douchebags stick their noses into everything, and fuck everyones lives up.

christians account for more crimes in america than gays do... yet they pretend gays are out to do this, and do that, and do your childrens butts, when it is the christians that tend to get caught pedophilling childrens personal areas.

 

hahaha, what an arrogant fuck.

 

to impeach walker, they will have to prove that he overstepped the bounds of judicial procedure, and the constitution of the united states of america.

that is extremely hard to do. Judges know the law, and know that if there ruling is to be considered valid, they have to work diligently within the law.

did you notice, AFA did not lay out what he had done that is apperently impeachable within the letters of judical procedure, or the constitution?

they are claiming him being gay is a issue, but the fact of the matter is that a judges personal life is not relevant to any case. Judge walker went out of his way to detail in a major way each and every finding of fact. He left no stone unturned to explain why he had made his judgement, but providing the evidence from the trial to prove the ruling's relevancy and solidity.

AFA is not going after the ruling itself, they are trashing his personal life outside the court. it may sway the biggoted, religious nutjobs, and self-absorbed child molesters, but it wont get them very far in real impeachment procedure.

 

“This is a tyrannical, abusive and utterly unconstitutional display of judicial arrogance. Judge Walker has turned ‘We the People’ into ‘I the Judge.’

oh like they can talk >.> denying rights of minority's...fine...but the ruling saying theyre wrong ..call the national guard !!!! >.>

 

they are idiots who dont know why the founding father's gave us a judicial system in the first place. it was because we are not a christian fucking dictatorship, and we are a constitutional republic.

the judicial system was put in place to overturn and pretend the majority rule from voting on, and seeking to take away the equal rights of other.

AFA is nothing more than a bunch of uneducated, anti-founding father, anti-constitution, anti-child wellbeing, corrupt cousin humpers.
