Thanks for that info.

What do you think about Rep. Ron Paul's legislation on this matter?

We the People Act (HR 3893)- Prohibits the Supreme Court and each Federal court from adjudicating any claim or relying on judicial decisions involving: (1) State or local laws, regulations, or policies concerning the free exercise or establishment of religion; (2) the right of privacy, including issues of sexual practices, orientation, or reproduction; or (3) the right to marry without regard to sex or sexual orientation where based upon equal protection of the laws.

Oh, goody. Read that first clause very carefully, and you'll see why you should be worried.

I like the legislation, but why doesn't he go one step farther and prohibit them from adjudicating claims based on state law and the supremacy clause, unless they are reviewing federal law that applies to the states? That would remove a good chunk of the problems they've created.
