There is no “right” to marriage.

Historically, marriage has been an obligation undertaken by a male and a female prior to engaging in activities that might reasonably be expected to yield offspring.

Didn’t always work out that way, but that was the idea.

There were lots of people who couldn’t get married. You couldn’t marry a close relative, you couldn’t marry anyone if you were already married, you couldn’t marry someone else who was already married, you couldn’t marry someone who had a “loathsome social disease”, and so on.

Since it’s impossible for homosexual activities to yield offspring, the whole concept of “homosexual marriage” is null and void.

Private Joshua Wood half starved and freezing,nursing the bullet wound from the previous summer’s fighting sitting in his hut at Valley Forge thought to himself”you know all this sacrifice will be worth it if homosexuals can marry and adopt kids!”

Well shazam. It’s right there in the Constitution. The right of the people to keep and bear penis shall not be infringed.

This judge needs a pee test. You’d have to be on drugs to come up with logic like that.

I’ll tell you what is deeply rooted in this nations history. The resistance to corrupt {either morally or criminally} Tyrants holding and abusing their powers of public office or position of authority. The tradition is called running them out of town on a rail and I’d love to see it become popular once again.

Moral decay isn’t liberty . . . it is license. Aristotle to our Framers knew this. They also knew tyranny when they saw it.

From 9/22/12, after Shelby was confirmed to the federal court (http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/politics/54947000-90/utah-shelby-senate-court.html.csp):

Sen. Orrin Hatch, a former chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee who had supported Shelby, praised the confirmation vote.

“Bob is a good man who has studied our laws inside and out, and he’s going to make a great addition to our District Court in Utah,” Hatch said Saturday. “He’s a hard worker who’s given his time in public service and defended the law in private practice as well.”

and...

[Senator Mike] Lee said he supports the nominee, crediting him with being a “pre-eminently qualified lawyer” who will be an “outstanding judge.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gee, those darn liberal senators from Utah!

Just the opposite is true!: What is this Judge smoking?
This Nation is steeped in judeo-christian beliefs.

Perhaps this case will be appealed and perhaps Justice Kennedy will rollover one night and it will dawn on him he has spawned decadence. Federal judges fancy themselves legislators. They are so perverting the Constitution (first the wholesale unrestricted killing of innocent human life and now the legalization of the vile molestation of young boys by queer men) that a decent person would have to take pause before taking an oath to uphold and defend.

At least we now know that he didn’t base his decision on the Constitution itself.
