Time for Miller and Gronstal to go

I have been paying attention to Iowa Attorney Generals threatening of County Recorders if they stand up to say NO to issuing same sex marriage licenses.

In checking out the bio of Tom Miller I find he is in his “seventh 4 year term” and that he “has earned a reputation for integrity, high quality legal work, and strong work on behalf of ordinary Iowans.”

No- Mr. Miller is not working on behalf of Iowans with his domineering style to the County Recorders. He is taking power that is not his to take.

Iowans – it is time to stand up to the Tom Miller’s of Iowa. We need to join together to expect the Republican Party and our Republican legislators to stand up to this man and then to work together to make sure he does NOT have an eighth 4 year term.

And while I am at it- where is the plan to dethrone Senator Gronstal? Is there one?

If there is a plan- I want to know about it. If there is not a plan- THERE NEEDS TO BE!

Let’s start now to form an army of citizens who will not be rolling over and play Conservative Dead to the Millers and Gronstals of Iowa who are out to ruin our state with their liberal views and high handed ways.

To make it clear- out with Miller and out with Gronstal. Their time is up. But before I go I include what Tom Miller has posted on the Iowa Department of Justice website.

UPDATE April 21, 2009 — Attorney General Tom Miller statement: County Recorders must comply with Supreme Court Varnum decision:
We expect duly-elected county recorders to comply with the Iowa Constitution as interpreted unanimously by the Iowa Supreme Court, the highest court in Iowa. Our country lives by and thrives by the rule of law, and the rule of law means we all follow the law as interpreted by our courts — not by ourselves. We don’t each get to decide what the law is; that would lead to chaos. We must live by and follow what the courts decide.
Iowa’s recent Supreme Court ruling concluded: “The language in Iowa Code section 595.2 limiting civil marriage to a man and a woman must be stricken from the statute, and the remaining statutory language must be interpreted and applied in a manner allowing gay and lesbian people full access to the institution of civil marriage.”
The Court’s ruling applies everywhere in Iowa, in every county. Recorders do not have discretion or power to ignore the Iowa Supreme Court’s ruling.
As we have advised recorders for several days: All county recorders in the state of Iowa are required to comply with the Varnum decision following issuance of procedendo from the Supreme Court, and to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples in the same manner as licenses issued to opposite gender applicants.
If necessary, we will explore legal actions to enforce and implement the Court’s ruling, working with the Iowa Dept. of Public Health and county attorneys.
