Black leaders slam Supreme Court’s 'cowardice' in marriage protection ruling
Examiner.com ^ | 10/13/14 | Jim Kouri

A number of black Christian pastors and church leaders slammed the United States Supreme Court justices for turning down a case that would once and for all settle the dispute and divisiveness created by the issue of same-sex marriage. The National Coalition of Black Pastors and Christian Leaders characterized the court's decision -- "not to hear the case" and send it back to the lower courts -- as cowardice on the part of the nine members of the nation's highest court.

On Monday, Oct. 6, 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court simply stated that it would not review cases which overturned state laws of five states defining marriage as exclusively the union of one man and one woman. The African American Christian group was disappointed that the court gave no explanation for its seemingly arbitrary decision.

Interesting quote from the article, ...

Former lesbian Ms. Boynes also cautioned Americans: “The Generations to come will suffer the consequences of our poor choices. So many people are clueless about who they are and who God has created them to be. But, there is too much at stake for us to throw in the towel. We must rise up and fulfill the call that God has placed on us as a body of Christ. Our future as a nation depends on it!”

I would hope that a few would reconsider their voting habits that helped lead to this current situation.

I agree with your sentiment. However, at least one of the lower court rulings imposing homosexual marriage was issued by a judge appointed by George W. Bush.

And we know how Anthony Kennedy, a Reagan appointee, had become so swishy on homosexual issues in court too. Sadly, we can’t blame all of this on liberal Democrat judges.

Very true about Ted Olson. What has happened, that various conservatives decided to be in favor of homosexual marriage? Why did this happen? They wanted to prove how liberal they are? They are afraid of being called homophobic, since the liberals framed the debate on marriage, that anyone opposed is a bigot and homophobe?

The US Supreme Court is the only institution in this country that is MORE WORTHLESS and LAZY than the half-breed golfer in the White Hut. If I had one wish, it would be to force these bastards and bastardettes to actually go to work and help solve our most pressing Constitutional problems. And quit trying to twist the law into idiotic contortions in their decisionmaking! It should not take years for them to decide how many fairies are able to dance on the head of a pin!

Ted Olson.......... I’ve thought about Barbara Olson 100 times since her untimely death. And both of you are 100% correct about Ted. What DID happen to this guy? He used to be a brilliant lawyer for OUR side. Yes she must be spinning in her grave. Side-bar - do you remember right after she died Hildabeast wanted her book NOT to be published?

Same for Kissinger after he married a lib, wasn’t it?

How many on the right are being blackmailed by those on the left? Perhaps one day we’ll find out. Boo Hoo Boehner and John Roberts come to mind. Others for sure. Whatever low life threats you can imagine from the left, double that and it’s probably true. Rant off for now.

It’s all part of “the big tent” theory.
