But as we see in Iowa, judges are now comfortable with overturning laws that define marriage

---

Just to review the facts on this so everyone knows:

THIS WAS OBVIOUS JUDICIAL ACTIVISM

1) A county judge made this ruling

2) He told the county court house to IMMEDIATELY IMPLEMENT his ruling which is odd on a controversial ruling such as this

2) Iowa requires a 3 day waiting period which some how ONE perverted “couple” found a judge to provide the exemption BEFORE the ruling was put on hold.

Sure state judges are sometimes willing to overturn laws that define marriage, such as was done in Iowa. But, IMHO, the federal government has no business telling states how their judicial and legislative branches should function. That’s up to each state to decide. What Thompson is proposing seems far more violative of the basic principles of federalism than the amendment he opposes.
