"Thursday is the big day," said Jeff Bouchard of the Arlington Street Church. "Every 20 minutes there will a couple coming up, they will be meeting with the clergy, they will speak with them, sign their license, walk out with a picture of themselves and a rose."

That's not clergy, it's an apostate.

I certainly don't agree with gay marriage, but I'm not sure there's anything in the Constitution that prohibits it.

That's why we need a Constitutional ban on gay marriage.

This will be much different and much much bigger than the rush to San Francisco. I can't imagine that all the nation's homosexuals won't be headed to MA. I also gotta believe these mariages will be valid nationwide.

As it should be. The Supreme Court should have NO jurisdiction in how a state issues licenses.

The U.S. Supreme Court has absolutely zero jurisdiction to review a decision of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts based solely on the Massachusetts Constitution. That's why not even Scalia or Rehnquist voted to intervene.

If Muslims ruled we wouldn't have gay marriage. Seems to me we are fighting in Iraq to insure gay people have the freedom to get married. Maybe we will lose the war on terrorism.

Yes, our guys fight by the rules . . .

Which still makes what is happening in MA a great tragedy. The Left would use the Supreme Court to advance their agenda . . . out of principal, our guys cannot . . .

We should believe activist judges who disregard the Constitution would have any regard for a Constitutional Ammendment because?

In order for an Ammendment to be effective, some judges will have to be removed from the bench.

I have not heard anything about Bush actually doing anything to get that constitutional amendment. I am waiting.
