"Christians Out of the Castro, Christians Out of the Castro!"

Angry gays continue tolerantly, lovingly assaulting anyone who disagrees with them... or anyone who simply sings Amazing Grace.

Vid at Hot Air, plus links. Not only is there a good chance the California Supreme Court will overturn a constitutional amendment for being, um, unconstitutional (neat trick that), but our own beloved Anthony Kennedy may step in and write another one of his Mysteries and Wonders of Human Sexuality opinions overturning it on a 5-4 vote. They did something sort of similar with the Colorado anti-special-gay-protections amendment.

Whether you believe in Prop 8 or not, judges, supposedly, derive their power to overturn legislation based on laws' purported conflicts with The Constitution -- it is the Constitution from which their power derives entirely.

How on earth can they claim that constitutions themselves are unconstitutional?

This is a simple admission that they do not base their opinions on the Constitution at all, but simply upon their own sense of That Which Is Good. Shorn of any theory which even plausibly hints at such a residuum of judicial power, their decisions are now lawless and themselves unconstitutional, without even a pretext of principled, limited theory of judicial intervention legitimizing their actions.
