The Supreme Court has no authority to create (”legalize” in the article) the “law of the land.” If they are going to do that, we need to send Congress home and stop wasting all of the taxpayers’ money being used to subsidize politicians. JMO in the warm and fuzziest words I can come up with.

Excellent point. If the Eminent Tribunal now is the lawmaking branch, who needs congress?

The Left has awakened a Sleeping Giant.

If we had a free press they would be demanding to know: what law was broken.

The impending visits from Cruz and Huckabee underlined what a problem having he rin jail was posing, publicity-wise, for the Gaystapo, so she had to be released before any further damage could occur.

Were it I, I might well refuse to go.

You are correct.

Separation of powers and all that, the legislative powers belong to Congress and the various state legislatures.

The proper way to handle this would have been for the SC to order either Congress or the state legislature to do something, WHICH THE LEGISLATURES COULD IGNORE!

Did she cave in the least? In other words, will she allow her name to be affixed to these certificates?

Had she been a Muslim and taking the same stance against a same-sex marriage, would she have been imprisoned? An inquisitive mind wants to know.

The Left has awakened a Sleeping Giant.

What sleeping giant? America's Christians?

They're not going to do anything. They'll sit and pray and continue to be good little submissives.

If there ever comes some sort of uprising or massive political movement in America to push back against Liberalism, it won't be lead by the churches.

The Constitution now says whatever the hell 5 out of 9 Supreme Court Justices currently want it to say.

Scalia and Kennedy will both turn 80 next year. Thomas will be in his 70s during the next President’s term. If Hillary gets to replace any one of them, then a far left wing oligarchy will be dictating from the bench for the next 30 years.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.
