The Constitution means exactly what it says, no more no less. It is actually a simple document written in the vernacular of the public at that time. If it is not in the Constitution it is not there and is not to be interpreted as being there by the Judiciary. If we do not like the constitution it can be amended as has occurred several times.

It is the function of the Legislature to write the law. It is the function of the Judiciary to determine if the written law of the legislature is constitutional. When the Judiciary makes law from the bench by interpreting law that is not addressed they have then assumed the function of the legislature and that most definitely is not legal nor their function.

The Judiciary has taken the Constitution and wiped their collective butt with it. The legislature and executive branch have failed to protect the Constitution.PJ O'Rourke said it best when he described congress as, "A PARLIMENT OF WHORES," but I think this comparison is very slanderous of the working ladies. They have some standards, congress has none. They also work for a living and stop scewing you when you are dead, congress does not, i.e. inheritance taxes.

Court should not say, however, is that Dumbledore cannot marry a man in 2007 simply because same-sex marriage was not allowed in 1868, when the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified....
Yes they should because that was clearly the intent when it was written. To say that it meant to allow homosexual marriage is preposterous. Those who don’t like that fact can try to get it changed, otherwise Dumbledore, by the same logic, is equally free to marry three men, a goat, or a ten year old.
