Prop. 8 judge encouraged to step down

[tickler]

Gee, the judge is gay so the fix must be in favor of the gay marriage folks.

Duh, if the judge was straight would the fix be in favor of the anti-gay marriage folks.

Speaking of which, can I force a judge to be one who likes my kind of porn. |goodidea

Matt Barber, attorney and director of cultural affairs at Liberty Counsel, believes Walker ought to resign from the case if the allegation is true.

The Liberty Counsel attorney cites from federal law that "a judge shall disqualify himself when he knows that he has a financial or any other interest that could be substantially affected by the outcome of the proceeding," and he argues that if Walker is a homosexual and overturns Prop. 8, he would benefit by granting himself the right to marry a man. Given that effect, Barber decides that hardly represents impartiality.
