“Is it your position that society has no say in what has legal sanction?”

Our say comes thru the ballot box. If our society hadn’t elected evil people to office, judges like Ginsberg and Kennedy would not be judges.

Congress could pass a federal law tomorrow giving all clerks in all states the right to refuse to issue a license unless no other person could issue one. Or they could take the matter out of the courts hands, or they could pass an amendment banning homosexual marriage.

They don’t because our society, as a whole, has decided to allow homosexuals to get government benefits available to married couples. Read the dissent Clarence Thomas wrote. Homosexuals have always had the right to marriage. They just haven’t had the right to government endorsement and benefits available to married people.

The problem is that our society HAS accepted homosexual marriage. I’m totally opposed, but I’m in the minority.

But this is a simple problem - can a county clerk refuse to comply with the law because she doesn’t approve of the law?

Ginsberg and Kennedy, et al, have acted as legislators. They have acted as a super-legislature, un-elected, un-accountable, un-appealable - that is: DICTATORS.

The Liberal media controls 40% of the ballot box by feeding propaganda to the dumbest 40% of the country.

I no longer regard our democratic system as viable. It won't be viable until both sides have access to the information distribution system, and not just Liberal Democrats.

The ballot box is broken. The system has been gamed. We no longer have fair and legal elections.
