The Supreme Court on Friday night allowed same-sex marriages to begin in Idaho, ending a dramatic week in which the right of gay couples to marry expanded dramatically across the nation.

In a one-sentence order, the justices denied a request from Idaho Gov. C.L. Butch Otter (R) to delay the unions so the state could continue its appeals. The court gave no reason for the action nor were there recorded dissents.

Kennedy had briefly stayed the 9th Circuit's decision at the request of the Idaho Attorney General, but he referred the stay motion to the full Court, which denied a stay without comment and without dissent. Not a surprise, actually, after Monday's decision not to hear any of the gay marriage cases.

The Roberts’ court is turning out to be a disgusting mess.

Some assembly required.

John Roberts supports gay marriage? Not a surprise.

Roberts is making a clean sweep, isn't he?

Obama and Holder must really have the goods on him.

I am with you.

Tired of the UNelected black robed thugs at this level and the federally appointed lower level telling the States what to do.

In my book, the People of the States should tell these shiiteheads to go pound sand. If someone wants to file suit against the State, let it drag out thru their ridiculous three ring circuit court.

The People rule...

Is he a homosexual? I thought he was a family man, but I never actually tried to research it.

It makes you wonder. Here’s another fine Bush mess. Sorry folks, but it’s the truth.

Toldja. This was just procedural.

There is a change in the wind on the Roberts Court ... and it is not a good change.

This has been one of the traditional reasons to elect a Republican. The party has so veered off course, that now our Republican Presidents don’t appoint solid candidates.

FAIL! Epic FAIL!

We’ll have to deal with Roberts for potentially another 20-30 years.

No. If they did, they’d have him resign, get rid of the filibuster of SCOTUS nominees and put another flaming Libtard in there.

It’s actually Roberts is trending Liberal. And that is bad news.

The tenth amendment is dead.

So is the fourteenth amendment.

Soon, the all out assault on the first amendment, as churches and people of faith will be attacked for not celebrating sodomy.

Isaiah 5:20 applies. See Genesis 19.

You really think America even has another 20-30 years?

I sure as hell don’t.

And with this grotesque wave of depravity descending over the country, I don’t particularly have any interest in seeing it last any further.

I’d urge the Idaho governor to just tell Kennedy and the SC to go straight to hell.

Hey man, it’s good to understand that we are losing the argument . . . it’s not very good not to understand why.
