What this judge did would be deemed uber liberal activism. He overturned a law, approved by the VOTERS, by delving into the thought processes of its supporters.

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals will decide whether the federal judge who struck down California's ban on same sex marriage last year should have disclosed his long-term relationship with another man.

You've hit the nail on the head. The judges will know that whatever ruling they make will have repercussions beyond extending the right to marrry to homosexuals.
