There is a balance that has to be maintained between individual freedom and out-of-control individualism. The lines are not always clear on these issues. That is why logical judgments have to be made, and that means taking cultural risks sometimes. So not everyone will always be happy. So welcome to the real world.

So you trust the federal government to make these logical judgments? I don't. And I don't know where it says that they have the authority or right to do anything of the sort.

We gave them limited powers, and none of those extend to the bedroom.

Granted, so long as there is no harm to another person or their property and everyone has attained the age of majority. But even these rules can only be defined, imposed and enforced by the state or local governments.

If the Supremes are over-stepping their bounds, so is Mr. Santorum.
