WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution provides same-sex couples the right to marry in a historic triumph for gay rights.

-snip-

Justice Anthony Kennedy, writing on behalf of the court, said that the hope of gay people intending to marry "is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization's oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right."

Right, and Roe v Wade did not allow abortion after the first trimester.

Sleepy Americans, awakening from their naps had somehow convinced themselves this day would never come.

Why American Freedom is in its Eleventh Hour:

"From bondage to spiritual faith;
From spiritual faith to great courage;
From courage to liberty;
From liberty to abundance;
From abundance to complacency;
From complacency to apathy;
From apathy to dependence;
From dependence back into bondage.”

[SVTCobra03]

Romans 1:21-27King James Version (KJV)

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

Yawn...

This is a minor bump. Since SCOTUS is defining words to make law, change the “Defense of Marriage Act” to the “Defense of Holy Matrimony Act” and send it to Congress for a vote.

Holy Matrimony is the “union of one man and one woman.” With that one change, you just turn the law into what is really meant by it and now you protect religion.

This is so simple it is beyond ridiculous.

That's the problem. Everyone thinks the cowardly Republicans will save their liberty. Have the Republicans EVER nullified anything the democrats have done to this country? Anything at all?
Why didn't they immediately defund obomacare as soon as they had the chance? Now they're saying if they win in 2016, they'll "replace" it with their own version of the same thing!

That's because oboma is said to be both.

Time to push the reset button and start over. We really haven’t had a constitution that has been followed as law since at least FDR. And this just finishes completely. Constitution convention. Call the states together, let’s get started. ------------- When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.—Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world. ....

You are correct on that, but Nature’s way is usually quite violent truth be known. We shall soon find that out.

[JimRed]

Just shun the homos as much as possible so you don't get defiled by them.

Love them enough to witness to them, if they will listen to you. Pray for them.

Just who left the closet door open?

I'm putting my money on a super-duper form of AIDs. Death within days. That way the heterosexuals (natures chosen people) will not be harmed.

This time it was Kennedy being the ridiculous little bitch (notice the 4 libs let him write the decision) while Roberts wrote a dissent “Well gee wiz the constitution doesn’t say anything about buttseks”. Scalia wrote a better dissent.

“The opinion is couched in a style that is as pretentious as its content is egotistic,” Justice Scalia wrote of his colleague’s work. “Of course the opinion’s showy profundities are often profoundly incoherent.”

Can we transfer Scalia’s brain into a robot so can stay on the court forever?

Can we go back in time and ask James Madison if Kennedy is right? And then bring George Washington back so he can introduce Anthony “Teddy” Kennedy (and Roberts too, why not), Wise Latina, Breyer’s Poop Ice Cream, Gingsberg’s reanimated corpse, and Elena Kagan (who reportedly sold her vote to gay friend who vowed to pretend she’s a boy long enough to relive her of her virginity) to his axe? No?

Oh well, lets all go to Key West!!! Pass the crystal meth!!!

What should Lady Liberty name the AIDS baby she just gave birth to? I vote for “Kennedy Baraq”. Happy birthday Kennedy Baraq.

Isn’t it time for the states to get out the union?

[Daffynition]

All this hoopla has emboldened me. Today I feel I have been freed.

It’s time for me to come out of the closet. I am a heterosexual.

PHEW! There I said it!

[Sioux-san]

Gays’ sexual behavior results in some horrible diseases and afflictions, which is seated in mental illness. Did you read about the doctor who was just fired after 30 years (can’t remember where this was) for telling the truth about this. When you can’t hear the truth, then heterosexual people get duped as they were in Ireland to think this is a ‘love’ issue. BS - it’s about normalizing deviant behavior and legalizing the gays’ access to adopting babies and children. CHAOS is the ultimate goal.

No. It's time to take back the Union via an Article V Convention.

...”I expect that we’ll hear that any such church will lose tax-exempt status”....

Many already addressed Scotus on that before the decision and are willing to forfeit their tax-exemption and will not comply with this decision.

[GOPsterinMA]

Well said Impy.

My mind was made that this was going to go the way it did when Ireland voted for buggery. There’s your recent president.

ObamaRobertscare-—buggery-—illegals: They’re all connected, this strings are being pulled by the same puppeteers.

The solution is clear. The solution is the only solution.
