Breaking: Supreme Court to Consider Review of Prop 8, DOMA Cases on November 20th

[William769]

Just got this form AFER:

The U.S. Supreme Court has announced that it will consider whether to grant review in AFER’s federal constitutional challenge to California’s Proposition 8.

The Justices will meet to discuss our case, along with several challenges to the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), at their private Conference scheduled for Tuesday, November 20.

The Court is expected to either:

* Grant review of our Prop. 8 challenge, at which point AFER’s legal team, led by distinguished attorneys Ted
Olson and David Boies, will submit written briefs and present oral arguments by April 2013. A final decision on Prop. 8 and marriage equality is expected by June 2013.

* Deny review, making permanent the landmark federal appeals court ruling that found Prop. 8 UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Marriage equality will be restored in California.

All I want for Christmas is...

1. All I want is a delay until there's a new (more sane) Supreme Court.

2. Maybe they will deny the review

Repukes are lazy and Thomas is an old man and I'm sure they don't want to do more work then they have to.

3. Delaying until after the election

Typical of that group of people that are afraid to take a stand.
