Hear that Rand Paul supporters?
...and I like Rand Paul...
Some here get it wrong - Paul wants the STATES to decide which is exactly where this issue belongs because federal interference is flat-out unconstitutional.

We’ve only “lost” to the extent that we surrender.
Like abortion, same sex marriage is purely the result of judicial activism. Unlike abortion, entire states have approved traditional marriage by huge majorities only to have “judges” find in our constitution some right to same sex marriage, and that without a shred of historical approval of same sex marriage anywhere at any time.
So, judges have intentionally overturned the will of the people with some nonsense about equality under the law, although even they won’t (yet) say that a man can marry multiple wives, a sibling, a parent, a cow, a computer, a car, etc.
“Gay marriage” is an attempted coup d’etat against God, against nature, and against We the People of the United States. I assure you that neither God nor nature will be overthrown. The only question is whether the American people will allow themselves to be overthrown by lawless judges and their supine enablers in the other two branches. The verdict is still out.
Good article. BTTT.
When conservatives control congress, they need to do a systematic reorganizations of the federal judiciary at several levels, one part of which would be the purging of judges with activist leanings.
Fortunately, right now many of them have made themselves known. Overruling voter referendums, effectively pardoning savage murderers, releasing pedophiles with a slap on the wrist, and generating decisions invariably overturned on appeal for mistakes law students wouldn’t make.
Quite a list of those who should be put out to pasture.
Once the public at large sees the social, moral and economic effects of gay marriage on the 19 states that have gay marriage, the people, the politicians and even the courts will turn away from gay marriage.
I heard Mike Wallace’s son (I really don’t remember his first name) as a guest on a conservative talk show the other day telling how he went to a sodomite “marriage” ceremony and he saw nothing wrong with it.
The problem with this libertarian perspective it that it focuses solely on individuals but ignores the importance of institutions to society and to the country. Diversity, pacifism, and appeasement all seem like good things until we find ourselves divided amongst one another having to face a foreign totalitarian threat. We don’t live in a post-aggression world.

The author is correct. If the conservatives succeed to define the views on same-sex “marriage”, judicial activism and abortion as a unified wedge issue, we win.
So far we’ve allowed the left to define these issues for us.
It is a matter of moral truth. Never give up. Never surrender. The truth is not determined by democratic vote or the rulings of courts.
