    No, they aren't. They are citizens with opinions just like you and me. They can disagree, but they don't hold themselves to be invalid usurpers of the Constitution. Often they are the ones in the majority and they know how it works.

    Not sure where I read this but thought it was a great idea. With all the cock-blocks running for the Republican ticket, they should have a reality show where we can vote one out each week. I was thinking the same format as naked and afraid so those wealthy bastards could know what it's like to be without. How entertaining would it be to hear some of those little white bitches screaming from dangers encountered in the woods.

    Actually, as I typed that I was thinking throw the whole dam bunch and crown the one that emerges as our next leader.

    I would pay money not to see Chris Christie naked. Vote him out first.

    I disagree. Even the people who typically hate him, agreed it was a masterful twist of commentary.

    I thought you were talking Constitutionality....that's why I point out that the discussion of marriage is out of place, especially the "nature" of marriage. What total esoteric nonsense on what should be a point of law.

    Those cases don't make this one wrong or irrelevant. Do states NEVER deserve to have rights?

    I'm not afraid of hearing a damn thing. Justice Kennedy has become Dr. Feelgood.

    If over half the people engaged in the marriage situation are not following a basic tenet, then the nature of marriage becomes nearly impossible to accurately define. I found it funny because it's so grossly hypocritical.

    I don't object. I object to the SC making the decision for everybody on this topic. I object to the door of civil lawsuits that has just been opened. I object to what I believe we will be discussing a few more years down the road.

    Between this and Red's use of the term "Teabaggers", it's clear the left-leaners are also full of insults but they don't seem to like it much when the shoe is on the other foot. Like say, the foot with cankles.

    Funny how liberal justice Kagan felt about this issue during her 2009 Senate Confirmation hearing.

    "In response to a question from Sen. John Cornyn (at page 28 of her Senate Judiciary Questionnaire), Kagan stated flat out that there was no constitutional right for same sex couples to marry:

    1. As Solicitor General, you would be charged with defending the Defense of Marriage Act. That law, as you may know, was enacted by overwhelming majorities of both houses of Congress (85-14 in the Senate and 342-67 in the House) in 1996 and signed into law by President Clinton.

    a. Given your rhetoric about the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy—you called it “a profound wrong—a moral injustice of the first order”—let me ask this basic question: Do you believe that there is a federal constitutional right to same sex marriage?

    Answer: There is no federal constitutional right to same-sex marriage."


    So when there is such a dramatic shift in opinion on such a major topic, how the hell do we know what we are getting based on confirmation hearings?
