Why do we bother to have elections if some unelected judge is just going to overthrow the will of the people and some media schmuck is going to refer to election results that he disagrees with as mob rule.
Democratically held elections are NOT mob rule.
And, this case reminds us again that we are in Orwell’s “1984” in some ways.
Consider this: The judge ruled that it violates federal law for California to define marriage as a man and a woman. Yet federal law itself defines marriage as a man and a woman. Isn’t this “1984” or “Alice in Wonderland” thinking? How could he issue such a ruling with a straight face?
The happy liberals who want to change the definition of marriage do not think about such legal matters, however. They just want their agenda enacted through the courts.
I have heard very few liberal or Democrat politicians ever talk about same-sex marriage. They prefer to let judges impose this policy decision without having to go through the messy legislative process. They want nationwide homosexual marriage but don’t have enough courage to pass a law to allow it.
Elections aren’t going to fix the mess we are in. We are past that point.
