Progressives lie. It’s what they do!
People don’t understand Cultural Marxism. She knows there’s no constitutional right , but that doesn’t stop her from creating one out of thin air
impeach her as it is high time the GOP show some balls , and they have the majorities.
The most unqualified Supreme Court appointment ever—approximately 1 1/2 years experience practicing law as an attorney.

Because she sees her office as a political office. The Court is there as a sitting constitutional convention.
Sadly just like 90% of the GOPe.
If it was mathematically (votes) possible, I agree.
As if it mattered. They'd confirm Satan himself telling the absolute truth about his agenda if they thought it was politically expedient, would avoid negative news coverage, etc.
"Senator John Cornyn: Do you believe that there is a federal constitutional right to samesex marriage?"
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
While I appreciate Moonbattery’s blog, Senator Cornyn’s PC, possibly staged question is another example why the ill-conceived 17th Amendment (17A) should never have been ratified. More about 17A shortly.
With all due respect to Senator Cornyn, all that he or any citizen has to do is read the Constitution to verify that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect gay marriage. The same with the so-called “right” to have an abortion.
In fact, regardless that activist justices used the 14th Amendment as their excuse to bluff that gay marriage is a right, they wrongly ignored the following. They ignored that the congressional record shows that John Bingham, the main author of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment, had clarified that the 14th Amendment applies only those rights that the states have amended the constitution to expressly protect to the states.
“Mr. Speaker, this House may safely follow the example of the makers of the Constitution and the builders of the Republic, by passing laws for enforcing all the privileges and immunities of the United States as guaranteed by the amended Constitution and expressly enumerated in the Constitution [emphasis added].” —John Bingham, Congressional Globe, House of Representatives, 42nd Congress, 1st Session. (See lower half of third column.)
And since the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect gay marriage, Obama’s puppet justices actually had no enumerated protections for gay marriage to throw at the states.
The Supreme Court had put it this way.
“3. The Constitution was written to be understood by the voters; its words and phrases were used in their normal and ordinary as distinguished from technical meaning; where the intention is clear, there is no room for construction and no excuse for interpolation or addition.” —United States v. Sprague, 1931.
Again, the Constitution is silent about about gay marriage and abortion.
The 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and corrupt senators, activist justices, and a lawless president along with it.
Impeach her. This wasn’t the only thing she lied about during the confirmation hearings.
And if the media would give them good press for a single day.
Congress can impeach a judge for “bad behavior”. Why aren’t they??
and impersonating Lou Costello.
