This is a live video feed showing the California State Supreme court's Prop. 8 hearing, which will go down as a historic civil rights movement when ruled on. It's scheduled to last until noon.
Update, 9:14 a.m.: The California Channel appears to be overwhelmed and not working.
Update: 9:31 a.m.: The California Channel is now working again, you can watch here: http://www.calchannel.com/images/tcc_live.html

fyi, i just tried to visit the Cal Channel website and as of 8:55am I get the error:
"The server at www.calchannel.com is taking too long to respond."
Interesting.
It could be that too many people are trying to to tune in.
Yeah, it looks like it's overwhelmed by looking at chatter on a big Prop 8 google group, eek!
There are probably more people trying to watch this California C-SPAN-type channel right now than at every other time combined!
Yeah, you got that right!
Unlike the craziness that was the inauguration, cnn live video is actually working for anyone interested.
You have the CNN link?

SFGTV2 is airing it as well.
If you have COMCAST it's on Channel 233.
LOL, Gloria Allred looks maaaaaaaad.
The No on 8 lawyers are taking an ass-kicking.
true story. it getting hard to watch. dammit! :(
Care to elaborate? I can't watch it at work.
Yes! Get the state out of the marriage business entirely!
Unfortunately, they're only arguing whether or not prop 8 constitutes a constitutional amendment or a revision, whether it violates the separation of powers clause in the constitution, and what to do about the people who got married if it is in fact deemed an amendment. Not whether marriage should even be validated by the state at all.
updated with embed of live MSNBC coverage.
Lawyer from the office of Attorney General is being grilled..they could've got a better counsel..
Well yeah, they could have gotten Jerry Brown but he refuses to have anything to do with this circus. The official statement from the Attorney General's office is that the vote on prop 8 should never have happened and that validating it will encourage others to attempt to alter civil rights for minority groups in this way.

These No on 8 lawyers are horrible. Their presentation style is making me cringe. Even if they had strong arguments, this goes in the face of all accepted common etiquette of a Supreme Court hearing.
The judges are there to challenge your opinion because it is their job. Yelling back and being snippy irritates the judge, puts you out of favor, and greatly hinders your credibility.
One can say they put more pressure on Starr and he stayed calm, overly polite (a tradition in these hearings), responsive, and approachable.
This was really bad, I don't see much hope on the side of No 8, as much as I'm still crossing my fingers for them.
I'm sure this is in the works, but could you post an overview of what went down with the hearing?
I didn't get a chance to watch the live feed, but am interested in knowing what each sides definitive arguments were. And the Justices initial reactions.
