“Appears to me the Dobson doesn’t like Federalism. Seems he wants his self-proclaimed christian rights instead of State’s Rights.”

As I’ve asked you on other threads, Tradition — so far, without an answer — do you think slavery should be left up to the 50 states?

Either way, explain your answer in the context of “federalism.”

The right to be born in the first place and the preservation of the lowest, most local form of self-government on which Western civilization rests — i.e., marriage — should be universally guaranteed, just as freedom from slavery is via an amendment to the Constitution.

And if the Con is amended via the very procedure which the founders placed in the Co in the first place, how does amendming it violate founding principles?

If you missed the announcement...Slavery was eliminated by means of Constitutional Amendment. It is no longer under the domain of State's Rights. There is no Constitutional Amendment eliminating abortion. Until such time it is a matter of State's Rights.

How I feel about either issue is a moot point. The LAW is the LAW.
