Right to Gay Marriage to Come before SCOTUS

Nothing's sure, but the smart money is on a right to gay marriage being upheld.

While the general posts on each new step towards gay rights are quite repetitive, it's really interesting to see the right begin to accept that they're losing the gay marriage fight.

Freepers are not known for their consistency, but it seems they've moved on from denial and anger and are now bargaining. It seems the current phase is saying that marriage is too good for the government anyhows.

catfish1957 is all in on the Roberts blackmail conspiracy:
My guess.... Obolo plays his blackmail card on Roberts again, and Fag/Carpet Muncher marriages become legal.
Extremely Extreme Extremist, though, has optimism that refuses to even listen to poll numbers:
I'm really confident that homo marriage will be returned to the states, unless Democrats want to become extinct in 2016.
marron has a grandfather clause for rights.
The court is going to discover that something that has never existed has suddenly become a constitutional right.

And people will say, yep. That’s right.

This is what happens when people unmoored from simple morality reach critical mass.
mrsmith is not a fan of Constitutional Amendments, it seems.
The original writing of the Constitution was ‘historic’.
The re-writing is just dull-witted.
VRW Conspirator's parade of horribles includes a transsexual teacher not getting fired.
There will come a day soon when a minister who came out of the closet will be refused a job at a church. He will sue and will win. Ultimately dividing and scattering a congregation.

There will come a day soon that a man wearing a dress and a mustache will be teaching 5th grade math and there will not be anything that parents can do or say. The administration will have their hands tied.

There will come a day soon that "gay" will be part of the protected class. Discrimination of any kind will result in lawsuits, job losses, business closures and finally affirmative action for gays.

And after all these, the perverts will push, hard, for lowering the age of consent to eleven and a half years old.

Now, have a nice day.
FrdmLvr retreats to this last bastion:
Marriage is a religious institution.
Steven Tyler invalidates all marriages:
The Sacrament of Marriage is clearly Religious in nature.

The Constitution prohibits the establishment of a Religion, or impede the exercise of a Religion

  1. The legalization of same-sex marriage is nice.
    The psychopathy same-sex marriage engenders in freepers is down right delicious.

    1. They're pretty much acknowledging that they've lost the Same Sex Marriage fight. Oh, sure, they whine that their marriages have been made irrelevant or weakened due to gay people being able to marry (if their straight marriage is weakened by SSM, it must have been weak to begin with). They intimate that Justice Roberts is gay because he won't discriminate, same old shit, just weaker.

  4. Check out the Neo-Luddism over at FR, where they complain about cars being electric. Hilarious!

    1. It's great. A tesla electric beats a Dodge muscle car, handily, and Freepers either think it's cool, think the Tesla driver cheated or don't care and want to burn as much fuel as possible.

      Any of the posters there that have the audacity to praise electrics or hybrids are called out as socialists.

    3. The very few conservatives who think climate change is real (though not necessarily manmade) will sometimes cite technological adaptation as the only rational response. But for some strange reason, they also tend to sneer at pretty much every relevant new technology that comes down the pike. Funny how that works!

  5. In a thread on Boehner's revenge, Flintlock (who has one of those CW2 tag lines) posts:

    Screw you, Boner, and ALL WHO VOTED FOR YOU. Traitors all.

    I’m changing my registration just as soon as the weather improves a bit.

  6. The Sacrament of Marriage is clearly Religious in nature.

    Furthermore, the cheese of which the moon consists is clearly Gouda.
