Gay Marriage
An online debate between the Liberty Counsel's Matthew Staver and the ACLU's Tamara Lange


Court TV Host: We're beginning our simultaneous Webcast of and online debate about the arguments before the California State Supreme Court about the power of officials to recognize gay marriage. The California state Supreme Court is hearing arguments on whether the mayor of San Francisco was within the law when he okayed thousands of same-sex marriages. Take up the same issues as the court, at the same time as you watch the arguments. Our guests are Tamara Lange, staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union, which has supported San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom in his effort to recognize gay marriages; and Matthew Staver, president and general counsel of the Liberty Counsel, one of the organizations which went to court to prevent the mayor from carrying out gay marriages.
