That the voters approved it is the extent of your analysis? If 70% of the voters in Missouri passed a law declaring Christianity to be the official religion of the state, would that be ok?

Or are there fundamental rights that individuals have that no law can impinge upon?
Fellacious argument, and you know it. Or, fellatious argument, given the topic. Missouri Supremes woulda struck down such a ballot measure per the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Tell me you knew.

Or are you truly the best that Tulane Law has to offer these days?

Regarding marriage as a fundamental right... There any number of Constitutional interpretations out there on the subject, including Scalia's...

But a fundamental, enumerated right? Really?

Hmm. The thinking here is the Founders didn't get around to specifically addressing that one, and provided an out to the States to define it for themselves per the 10th Amendment (Slave Amendment[/JesseJackson]). But that's just me. Perhaps the version of the Bill of Rights distributed to Louisiana holds a different take.

Personal passion does not the Constitution redefine, Jsc. The Will of the People is the Law of the Land. Don't like it? There's a process to amend the Document you clearly haven't troubled yourself to read or assimilate (Article V). I suggest you look into it.

Or are you one of those that is bent on telling us what the Founders really meant? :meds: -out-loud.

I remember that day well. Best I have ever felt walking out of the voting booth. Then later that night I was reminded that my state is comprised of pig molesters and morons.

That gay marriage thing was all a ploy to get values voters to the polls.

I hope that a court finds all marital benefits to be unconstitutional. Just cause I'm straight doesn't mean I get more rights than fags. My fag relative is not a second class citizen.

That isn't something you can argue against because you don't like it. Three SCOTUS cases say it.
Article and Section please. Or do you defer to the 10th amendment?

BTW, you seem to be missing the point that precedence does not necessarily define our laws. Or do you not read Justice Thomas's opinions? Despite the cunts Oharelip appointed tho the Supremes, sanity still prevails. Thank God.

I do not believe a poll was taken divided by baseball loyalties.


and I doubt the city dwellers were more backwoods and stupid to have voted against gay marriage than the inbred father rapers in southern missourah.

The right thing would be to rule that if a state wants to regulate who can legally be married in a civil union presided over by a government official, so be it. But they should also rule that neither the federal government, nor state governments, have a right to determine who can and cannot be married by a religious organization. Individual churches should be able to decide for themselves who they want to marry.

Well, then, you'd be wrong. Haven't stepped inside a black church lately, have you Bace? Folks in those precincts don't 'zactly cotton to dick suckers marryin' one another.

Categorizing the 70% that voted against gay marriage as "inbred southern missourah father rapers" would almost be like someone categorizing the 30% who didn't as cock sucking, communist, left-wing, America-hating, card-carryin' SEIU Obama-loving traitors. Or something like that. Can't imagine anybody being that narrow-minded...

I hope you are capable of appreciating the danger of that view. Will you still champion a "living Constitution" if, for example, the People vote a slew of Tea Party candidates into the Senate and a Tea Party president in 2012, and that new president is given the opportunity to grant lifetime appointments to a majority of new justices? Will your "living Constitution" still be growing with the jurisprudence when the new majority of robed oracles decides that every decision you hold near and dear to your heart was wrongly decided by their predecessors, and strikes all of them down in favor of a brave new world view? Think about what you are advocating, amigo.
I champion our living Constitution right now, even considering some of the absolutely horrible decisions that recently have come from the Court.

Some of the cases re search and seizure have disgusted me. There was another one involving prosecutorial misconduct that to me is one of the worst decisions in the Court's history, the prosecutors hid evidence from the defense that would have exonerated the defendant, and he ended up on Death Row. Just before he was to be executed, a private investigator found the evidence, and he was released from prison. He then sues the DA for wrongfully spending 18 years in prison (14 on Death Row), wins $14 million, but when the case made it to the SCOTUS, they reversed and gave him zero. How in the FUCK can you have a constitional violation with no consequence? Absolutely pathetic, a horrible decision, here is a NYT article on it.
Sounds like Harry Connick should stick to making music.

Nevertheless, I support a living Constitution, and I do have faith that one day that crap decision will be overruled, like Bowers was with Lawrence.
Instead of reading dissents, perhaps you should read the majority opinion:

The version of facts signed onto by the majority makes it very clear why the civil judgment was overturned.

My underlying concern is that jobs won't be created if ObaMao healthcare goes into effect and the males here that want to hook-up with the other males here will be a further drain on our economy. No employer is going to hire confirmed homosexual men if it passes. The implication is that unemployment will increase as the fags here will feel free to go against nature and be a drain on the health care system.

But rights that are not articulated in the Constitution cannot, by definition, be considered as constitutional rights.
Now wait just a damn minute...

The APA clearly states that marriage is a fundamental right.

Surely that trumps the Constitution and silly little statewide voter referendums all day, every day and twice on Sunday.

Sorry I busted the time limit since my "Booze Cruise" ship had to come to port in Cabo to let off passengers with salmonella poisoning. Poor bastards that have bloody diarrhea need IV's. If they followed my lead they would have been smart to just drink and eat popcorn.

Since it happened in territorial waters in the 3 to 12 nm zone off the coast I'm allowed to not help and won at the poker table since I'm the only one sitting here and have annoyed the dealer to the point she just let me win.

Gobbles...

You know what's really cool? No lines at the bar right now. This bartender (serious Mexican hottie that had boobs smaller than ucunts) was telling me about how she got a "Brazillian" bikini wax.

I replied to her "What a coincidence! I know an old lonely man that needs a credit card to be able to even talk to a woman that did the same thing." She went "EWWW!" Now I have to start tipping her due to the trauma she suffered after that story.

Poor girlie... I heated up some Pesos and stacked them on the floor and told her to squat and pick up as many as she can without using her hands. She screamed at first, but hey, that's a cheap fix for her bacterial vaginosis condition. You might try the same.
