I found Kennedy's opinion very lucid, direct and well based on the constitution. I found Roberts' and especially Scalia's dissents to be little more than tantrums. They lacked almost any reasonable, constitutional basis and barely, if that, argued against the points Kennedy made. In other words, Roberts and Scalia had no counter-argument, just disgust that they didn't get their way for very vague reasons. If this is the best he can do, Scalia is an intellectual lightweight (which I know he isn't, so why act like such? I can think of only one reason; he had no valid constitutional argument.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-37836468280977675582013-06-27T08:08:23.481-05:002013-06-27T08:08:23.481-05:00Everytime some rightist makes such comments, women...<b>Everytime some rightist makes such comments, women's ears perk up, we remember and vote for Democrats. 54%.

It is readable by anyone, persuasive and brilliant. And not a long read. The first part, on standing, says nothing whatsoever about gays or marriage or gay marriage, but about separation of powers. Again, it is brilliant. The only way to counter it is to keep people from reading it by declaring it a "rant" of a hateful bigot.

Are you prepared to call her names? Well, maybe not her since its her blog and you want to be respectful, but people like her. Bigoted people who hate polygamists and are on the wrong side of history.<br /><br />I'm a newbie on the politically correct lefty standards and am a little confused about what bandwagon I'm supposed to jump on. Do I start calling anti polygamists names or are the majority of libs who don't just not liberal enough yet to know that they should? How can you tell when the time is right to stand for or against the restriction? Do you need a plurality of liberals, a majority?<br /><br />jr565https://www.blogger.com/profile/06250384040393259866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-64360879171762023592013-06-26T21:15:58.860-05:002013-06-26T21:15:58.860-05:00Revenant wrote:

I would suggest that "feelings" must be reconcilable with reason in order to reach a viable conclusion.<br /><br />It concerns me that the homosexual activists, and their heterosexual patrons, do not support equal protection in equal measure. The latter is especially guilty of this bigotry. This suggests that they have ulterior motives or are acting on "feelings" without principles or reason.n.nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252447117532342957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-17545572730026263612013-06-26T20:26:01.597-05:002013-06-26T20:26:01.597-05:00I seem to recall that Argle Bargle IV (or someone ...I seem to recall that Argle Bargle IV (or someone very much like him) was the high king at Ribroast. In the 1,623rd year of the Third Age, the Naugahyde brothers, Brasso and Drano, led a large following of boggies across the Gallowine River disguised as a band of itinerant graverobbers and took control from the king. In return for the King's grudging acquiescence, they set up toll booths on the roads and bridges, waylaid his messengers, and sent him suggestive and threatening letters. In short, they settled down for a long stay.Roughcoathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12669030540648967376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-87143944788175264722013-06-26T20:23:22.521-05:002013-06-26T20:23:22.521-05:00inga wrote:
