Dronenburg Jr. for a temporary hold or "stay" on same-sex marriages. The court rejected a similar request last week by the sponsors of Proposition 8, the 2008 ballot measure that banned gay marriage."dr.primrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045500427671158694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8238382886103256219.post-67924833664037065452013-07-23T18:28:01.646-07:002013-07-23T18:28:01.646-07:00It is really worth watching the video.
