Petitions seeking judge's impeachment over gay marriage delivered

Petitions calling for the impeachment of a judge who overturned Iowa's ban on gay marriages have been delivered to Legislature. The petitions, with over 6,000 signatures, were handed over today by social conservative Bill Salier (suh-LEER'). He says the goal is to "stop a runaway judiciary." Salier says Polk County Judge Robert Hanson overstepped his authority by legalizing gay marriage last summer. Hanson stayed his ruling while it's under appeal to the Iowa Supreme Court.See Petitions seeking judge's impeachment over gay marriage delivered
