That's a lie - multiple lies, actually.  

The text of the initiative states "Only marriage between a man and a
woman will be valid or recognized in California."  That's not a
definition (which is what was said originally) or even a condition,
but a law.

Also, the California Supreme Court is not a "liberal judiciary": it
is actually fairly conservative, with all but one of its members
appointed by conservative Republican governors.

If you are going to argue about it, at least argue on the basis of
the facts.
