Deep down, even the Christian Right knows they have no real case against the downfall of Prop 8

The Christian Right's routine is that Judge Walker should have recused himself because he is gay.

But, just look at this statement by Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council:

"Had this guy been ... an evangelical preacher in his past there would have been cries for him to step down from this case."

Notice how Perkins doesn't say "Had this guy been ... an evangelical preacher in his past there would have been cries for him to step down from this case and WE would have been the ones making those cries."

He's basically really saying that the other side would have complained if that was the case. Well, this is about the law and constitutionality, not Crossfire style politics.

Maybe the teabaggers and the freepers don't know it; but Perkins, Wildmon, and the rest of them know that this argument they're making is 100% subjective and not based in law at all.

1. And why would a straight judge have been any better? He/she would

presumably (according to their way of thinking) have been biased from the get to also, right. Oh, but that doesn't matter if the bias is in THEIR favor.
