Ginsburg: Gay marriage shows Constitution’s genius
Associated Press ^ | Sep 6, 2013 10:28 PM EDT | MaryClaire Dale

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who recently officiated at a friend’s same-sex wedding, told a Philadelphia audience Friday that growing acceptance of gay marriage reflects the “genius” of the U.S. Constitution.

Ginsburg said equality has always been central to the Constitution, even if society has only applied it to minorities—be they women, blacks or gays—over time.

“So I see the genius of our Constitution, and of our society, is how much more embracive we have become than we were at the beginning,” Ginsburg said in a far-ranging discussion of her work at the National Constitution Center, steps from the nation’s founding at Independence Hall.

Ginsburg, the second woman named to the high court, has now served for 20 years and leads the court’s liberal minority.

Sure. She’s either a predator, or has an affinity for predators.

IOW, satanic demons drive her.

Half a century later, this bloodthirsty abortionist makes me sicker than ever. I wrote a vanity, Ruthie "Remedies" is Preganant! A different view of Gonzolas v. Carhart for your consideration.

And looking at her, it is apparent she will be in their torturing grasp sooner rather than later.

Orrin G. Hatch and the Republican primary voters of UT helped make Ginsburg’s path to confirmation very easy.

..growing acceptance of gay marriage.....

We are not accepting gay marriage. It is being forced on us. I simply laugh at anyone asking about gay marriage. It is not possible for homos to consummate a marriage, therefore it is as phony as monopoly money.

The French Revolution (and for that matter the Russian Revolution also) were revolutions against a ruling class within the country. On the other hand, the American Revolution was an anti-colonial revolution which left class structures in place.

“U.S. Constitution Too Old, Ginsburg Says”
February 10, 2012
From theTrumpet.com

“Supreme Court justice encourages Egypt to look to South African model instead.”

Perchance she has rediscovered the genius of our Constitution.

The US Constitution is our Supreme Law of the Land. It's kind of like Torah: a pillar of cloud by day and fire by night to lead the way for the righteous, but a source of confusion, stumbling, and dread for the wicked.

I too am dumbfounded.

Marriage is not about sex. These people are highly preferred and confused.

As Christ said, stones would cry out if they had voices because they are misused to stone the innocent languages in favor of perverted ones. Joys are a byproduct of life and liberty, not the other way around, or it would be tyranny. There is no equality in mind for a tyrant unforgiving hArassing homosexual bent on getting his dues and refusing to hear the other side.

She is not talking about my constitution and she is advancing communist dictatorship through sin and allegiance to it. Tit for tat is not equality.

Like Obama’s birth certificate the USA now has a layered Constitution. I don’t believe the Founders could have visualized the extent of layering beyond amendments to just all of the ‘social justice’.

She is a feminist against equality between men and women, but for women to dominate man in a ludicrous ideal of vengeful pay back used to hide her fundamental predator motives and crimes.

They always hide behind genders or humanities identities to commit crimes. These people are political animals who love mental expedient slogans and reject history or explanations. They were failures a school. They have no faith that a thought can be just as well grasped and internalized as their “non thoughts”.

These are very absurd silly people.
