Blind, stupid or lying (homosexual, marriage, religious leader, catholic, Article)

[Pah]

William Donohue of the Catholic League opposes the New York State same-sex marriage decision but it seems his tactical reasons for opposition are blind, stupid or lying - none of which should be qualitication for religious leadership

Justice Ling-Cohan ruled Friday that New York's ban on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional, finding in favor of five same-sex couples that were denied marriage licenses by the City of New York. Lambda Legal, a national homosexual rights group, filed suit last year on the couples' behalf, and homosexual rights activists watching the case with interest are applauding this latest court decision.

That is why the Catholic League president believes the judge's ruling will "boomerang." He notes that many observers are already calling the decision "historic," which he agrees it is. "Not one New York State judge in history who has read the New York State Constitution has ever been able to find a passage in it that okays gay marriage," the pro-family leader says.

According to Donohue, that would seem to suggest one of two possibilities. Apparently, he asserts, either all of Judge Ling-Cohan's predecessors and her current colleagues on the bench are incompetent, or else "she is another out-of-control judge who is reading into law what her politics dictate."

Donohue feels at least one thing is certain about New York State Supreme Court Justice Doris Ling-Cohan. "Her contribution to judicial imperialism will be duly noted by future historians," he says.

Section 11, Artcle 1, New York State Constitution

No person shall be denied the equal protection of the laws of this state or any subdivision thereof

And I'm not in a position of leadership

"Not one New York State judge in history who has read the New York State Constitution has ever been able to find a passage in it that okays gay marriage," the pro-family leader says.

Just out of interest pah, has anyone ever heard of any judge in New York State history who has read the New York State Constitution that has been able to find a passage in it that denies gay marriage?
