The constitution is about limiting government and recognition of our natural rights, not about social issues. Marriage is not a right, it's a privilege. If you want a specific definition of marriage then get congress to pass a federal law. "

Please, folks, PAY ATTENTION!

The Mass legislature indeed did pass a law. It is correct to get states to pass these laws, because that is where most of these things are regulated. The Liberal Judges incorrectly pretended that their constitution somehow forbids Mass. from insisting that marriage is between men and women only. As you say, constitutions dont define the parameters of these social issues. The judges engaged in judicial tyranny.

Suggesting the solution to the Judicial tyranny of the massachusetts supreme court is, alas, non-helpful. Where does the Congress have the power to overrule the mass supreme court?

IMHO, there is another solution: Throw the bums out in Massachusetts who let this abomination against their own Constitution happen. Starting with Ted Kennedy on down.

Starting with Ted Kennedy on down.

I think he's been told he's dieing. A gut feeling.

"Where does the Congress have the power to overrule the mass supreme court?"

The Mass. constitution has a remedy for this but this will take an extraordinary amount of public pressure. You don't need a new amendment to do this. Hell, Mass can't even remove Ted Kennedy, what makes you think Mass will remove a justice? You get what you deserve. All I can say is good luck.
