This stupidity is never going to end is it?
The soul-corruption runs deep.
Once you’ve lost the ability to distinguish right from wrong, good from evil, up from down, the simple text of a law or constitution loses its meaning as well.
There is no rule of law separate from the moral foundation it must rest upon.
I was looking for the John Semmens byline.
The irony is lost on this stupid bastard.
No, it's only deeply rooted in his anus.
No amount of indoctrination can overcome the "gag instinct" that comes naturally following this statement.
Therein lies the problem for the democrats with this whole farcical argument.
Some people believe it is a sin. Sorry.
Next: polygamy.
Next: Incest.
The list is long.
“This right is deeply rooted in the nation’s history and implicit in the concept of ordered liberty because it protects an individual’s ability to make deeply personal choices about love and family free from government interference.”
Ok...such bs.
Since the judge seems to depend on this “logic” as a core underpinning of his decision, can that be attacked in an appeal?
Its fairly obvious that homosexuality was never a thought to the founders nor in their wildest dreams a right.
Also, the fact that there are marriage laws at all IS a government interference...Should we just not have any laws about it, then?
Hmmmm....
I’m guesssing here that the Constitution of the United States of America never came into play in determining whether the law was Constitutional.
What is deeply rooted in America is the utter stupidity and ignorance of most federal judges.
I've said before on this website, and I'm beginning to think I can git 'r done now - I'm going to find a cat that some crazy cat lady left $10 million to, and "ask the court to hold that the State cannot prohibit them from exercising their existing right to marry on account of the sex species of their chosen partner".
Who are you to question my love?
I am quite sure that the cat will be struck with a sudden illness and I will be a rich, broken hearted survivor of the world's first inter species marriage. I will be a pioneer, and will have done well by doing good, as liberals always say. Note that I only changed one word in the article's language.
Reductio ad absurdum (fancy language for /sarc)
Why is this judge not walking down an isolated road dressed in nothing but tar and feathers!
This is the key error that runs all over our courts:
“To establish a new fundamental right, the court must determine that the right is ‘deeply rooted in this Nation’s history and tradition’ and ‘implicit in the concept of ordered liberty,”
by this error, that believes that mere “legal argument” held to certain standards, for the formulation of amending the Constitution via the concept of the “living constitution” is sufficient for establishing new “rights” that WE THE PEOPLE, the ONLY legitimate authors of our Constitutions, via our elected reprsentatives, have in fact NOT authored or approved our Constitution to contain.
We need an en masse impeachment of all such subversive judges.
How do they come to exist.
The above desrciption of how they think is very often how they are taught to think in our law schools.
To correct the judge’s error, the judicial thinking on “rights” should be ““To recognize a fundamental right, the court must determine that the right has been placed in the Constitution by acts of the people.”
“deeply rooted in the nation’s history and implicit in the concept of ordered liberty,” and as such is a fundamental right”
deeply rooted in the nation’s histroy?? phooey. the guy is nuts
and even if there was a shred of evidence for “implicit in the concept of ordered Liberty”, it remains up to the people, not the courts, to establish how and to what end a Liberty is recognized in law, or not.
Not according to God!
Is he claiming that since there's been no right to "homosexual marriage" during the nearly-quarter-millenium of this nation's history, we've had neither liberty nor justice prior to this?
IOW he believes the “born that way” myth.
behavior is immutable as skin color or needing a lung.
I wonder about his life.
Time to start closing law schools.
there is no reason for any state run law schools these days.
