This evil government has assumed jurisdiction over a power not granted to them by the states. The states MUST nullify evil when it rears its ugly head. Marriage is a natural rite, like giving birth and Washington has no say so over this rite.
Know yer rites, and yer rongs. As well as yer left's.
Are RINOs weak because;
1-They lack the courage of their convictions,
2-The influence of money,
3-They live under the threat of blackmail in some aspect of their lives?
4-They’re just spineless cowards who don’t know how to fight.
This article does note that Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin also caved in just like Governor Bentley did in Alabama.
Stop with the Peter and the Sanhedrin talk. That's irrelevant.
Look at what this idiot governor said: "We are a nation under laws".
OK, correct.
Do inferior Federal courts make "laws"? No they do not. Are laws made "in pursuance [of the Constitution]" supreme over state laws and judges? Yes they are.
OK, guv. Laws made BY CONGRESS, in pursuance of the Federal Constitution, require your obedience.
Please cite for us WHICH law, made by Congress OR mandated by the text of the Federal Constitution, as amended, requires the State of Alabama to desist from enforcing her own laws on this subject.
What about the notion of federalism? Seriously, we really ought to have a return to the idea of self-governance. That idea is so dead now, but it surely is what our founders intended.
Mr. Lincoln they DID die in vain.
Please explicitly state how so.

Didn't see that coming, but maybe I should have. Yet another sign of the times.
I wonder if the Westboro Baptists have plans to protest.
Spineless jellyfish BUMP
> “We are a nation under laws,” Bentley said.
Judge Moore explained the law, Mr. Bentley.

So did the Germans when they were told to turn in the Jews.
To Obey a law, it must first have moral authority. This law has no such moral authority. In fact, it is the very opposite.
Our system of laws only works because people have been trained to obey them by the Judeo-Christian beliefs taught them when they were young.
With the decline in such beliefs, we are about to find out how much respect people will have for laws when laws do not exhibit any moral authority, but merely a threat of punishment. As Edmund Burke pointed out:
The use of force alone is but temporary. It may subdue for a moment; but it does not remove the necessity of subduing again: and a nation is not governed, which is perpetually to be conquered.
In the 42 years since Roe and Doe, NO governor has ever declared that he will not obey the illegal, immoral commands from the Supreme Court.
Many governors have been Catholic, and the teaching of the Catholic Church is that immoral commands MUST be obeyed. That was also one of the basic principles of the Nuremburg trials.
Somebody have some dirt on him?

wimp in chief.
