Groper Panders to State GOP, Obstructing Determined Marryers

Serial groper tries to lecture couples willing to stand in the rain overnight to marry on the sanctity of nuptials:

Lockyer rejects halt to nuptials / He dismisses governor's demand as a political ploy

"The governor really has very limited authority to do anything in this situation," said Jesse Choper, a constitutional law professor at UC Berkeley's Boalt Hall and the school's former dean. "And the mayor does not report to the governor. The mayor is the chief executive officer of the city and county of San Francisco. He works by himself."

Nor, apparently, can a governor tell a judge what to do. Despite urging from Schwarzenegger, a Superior Court judge decided on Friday not to impose a temporary restraining order on the city to halt the marriages.

Here's those Florida rioter thugs who shut down the vote count in 2000. This week, I'm going to do some research and see how these overfed white boys are doing today.

UPDATE:

According to the IRS published documents, the Bush campaign also paid individual rioters: Matt Schlapp, a Bush staffer from the Austin office received $4,276.09; Thomas Pyle, a staff aide to House Majority Whip Tom DeLay, $456; Michael Murphy, a DeLay fund-raiser, $935; Garry Malphrus, House majority chief counsel to the House Judiciary subcommittee on criminal justice, $330; Charles Royal, a legislative aide to Rep. Jim DeMint, R-S.C. $391.80; and Kevin Smith, a former GOP House staffer, $373.23. Moore and Slater tell us that Karl Rove and James A. Baker III put it all together. According to the Miami Herald, July 14, 2002: Three of the rioters went on to jobs in the Bush White House: they include Schlapp, who became a special assistant to the president; Malphrus, who became deputy director of the president’s Domestic Policy Council; and Joel Kaplan who became another special assistant to the president.

You know what's sick about these guys? A thousand Nobel Prize winners and 500 scientific reports say humans cause global warming. The Bushies say, "We need to see more testing." Same with RU-486.

But their missile defense system couldn't hit the floor if you dropped one off the kitchen table - and they say they don't need more testing, they're ready to deploy tomorrow morning, and take all that chicken science stuff and get out of my way.

Cheney, the man who runs this country, has gone insane. And he just might drag the whole world down into his madness. He's already got Bush.
