If we must have a constitutional ammendment, then at least make it a productive one. Say, perhaps, re-establishing the separation of powers? Making it clear, once again, that it is the legislative and executive which make laws?

The constitution should not become a dictionary.

Yes, make the constitutional amendment takes a long time. Why not pass a law that states that any judge can be impeached or recalled with a majority vote of congress. Of course, that law would be overturned by a judge.

When these laws are overturned they need to be pushed to the Supreme Court as fast as possible. Just like was done in the 2000 election.
To do that you need outrage from our leadership, like in the 2000 election. You need a fighting spirit, like in 2000. I guess above all you need a Supreme Court that feels the need to take the case. If this motivation starts from the top then, Letsroll Mr. President.

To have to wait for a constitutional amendment to define something so plain and common sense as marriage being between a man and a woman is dumb. Whats next, an amendment that defines what a marriage is? An amendment to define what an amendment is? .... oh yeah an amendment to define what is is?

A constitution should be a constitution. A guide for who society lives. There is NOTHING wrong with memorializing a millenia's worth of history into black letter law.

As an incorporation of common law, it will recieve broad interpritation and protection. Adopting this WILL send the right message to judges.

Where do you get your talking point, from the Human Rights Coalition or some other homosexual group?

Agreed. The correct action to take is some well aimed impeachments of activists judges.

It's already supported by the Constitution. A legislature with cojones could do a lot to undo the damage the judiciary is doing.

Shalom.
