Was Prop 8 Judge Biased?

If a judge is homosexual and he rules in a case favoring homosexual marriage, is there any reason to question his impartiality?

SFGate says no. HuffPo says no.

I disagree. Just on the surface, it seems that there is reason to question the judge's impartiality. I'm not contending the judge was biased, just that it appears he could have been.

It would be like a Coke or Pepsi taste test where the judge picked Pepsi and it was found that he worked for Pepsi. Impartial? Maybe or maybe not. Reason to question his impartiality? Absolutely.
