What’s there to comment on? The will of the people has been subverted by our ridiculous Iran-style judicial system where judges can pretty much run the government. NEVER have we had a sitting AG greenlight federally appointed judges to simultaneously overrule state constitutions.

If you’re conservative and you haven’t bought firearms in bulk at this point, you’re not doing your constitutional duty. Remember what the Founders said.

Obamacare is the Law of the Land, but states’ homosexual marriage bans are not. Nice. Since the judge stayed his own ruling, that means he doesn’t believe this will pass muster with either the Fifth Court of Appeals or SCOTUS, meaning that this was simply another feeble attempt in the left’s long-term goal of turning Texas blue.

What a putrid article. The perverted graphic itself is a hangable offense.

Leftist gloating. If the trends continue, in 20 years, all current Traditional-Marriage supporters will be vilified, like Jim-Crow era whites are vilified today.

So? Per the example set by Eric the Red, Texas can just ignore it if they don’t like it.

There is a bill on the Missouri house floor to impeach the governor of Missouri for actual specified transgressions. This might help to keep him on task and focused when its his turn to sign the Missouri version of the AZ bill vetoed by governor Jan.

It would be so sweet to impeach Nixon, the democrat governor of Missouri.

They are free to rule it unconstitutional, and I am free to not obey them and will not consider a couple of dykes or faggots as married, nor will I afford them the same respect as a husband/wife.

These judges can decree, and I can say thank you for you input, but F^&K off.

Judge Orlando Garcia is the latest judge suffering from “black robed fever” which impels these jerks to overrule the will of the people.

Let them gloat.

We all know how this ends.

Gnashing of teeth comes to mind.

In the absence of an amendment to the federal constitution, states will have to disentangle all the rights they have attached to marital status. It is simply a matter of reviewing all the laws, seeing where rights are conditioned upon marital status, and then making those laws refer to individuals.

This has been obvious since the Massachusetts state supreme court ruled on the matter. The conservative position, stated by the minority in that decision, is that the interest of the state in marriage is to fix paternity to the husband of the mother at the time of birth (technically, this is a refutable presumption; since, the husband of the father can exercise a right to a divorce upon discovering that he has been cuckolded by the mother of the child).

Has any state actually reviewed its litany of laws that attach thousands of other things to marital status? No. Therefore, it is a joke for conservatives to say marriage is not about equality before the law. It’s only about protecting children. Will any state NOW review its laws?

As soon as the same sexes experience the misery of Family court (divorce), I don’t believe they will be rushing to get married. Plus, a divorce is darn expensive.

How the hell does an appointed judge overturn a legally enacted statute on an issue that is left to the states to decide?

Yeah, it looks like the left, and the demons in hell for that matter, have good reason to gloat. For the moment.

“We The People” have dropped the God ball.

We can complain from here till doomsday that what’s right isn’t being done, and you know, what’s right won’t get a decent foothold among sinful us without embracing a Savior in all seriousness.

This debacle is a lesson in needing Him which is being taught by God, and that largely not to the heathen world, but to Christians!!

The Left is getting away with the lie that sexual orientation is equivalent to race. That’s what really pisses me off about all this. If they had gotten their way by convincing a majority of people and enacting gay marriage through legislation, well so be it. But instead they are doing by fiat, through the courts, based on a lie. It is beyond contemptible.

The Communist Takeover Of America. 45 goals...

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
 
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
 
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
 
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”

It is all planned...secular humanism world is winning these battles by design..
They do lose the war...

It's gloating, but's it's also correct in predicting what the courts are going to do. As I've posted before, the holdings of Windsor made every state DOMA comprehensibly indefensible, which is why Bush I and Bush II appointees are ruling against them no differently from Clinton and Obama appointees.

There's a fair chance this issue never is even decided by the Supreme Court, because the Courts of Appeals will decide this issue uniformly in favor of gay marriage.
