The Supreme Court issued two really bad opinions today, both of them intimately linked to marriage.  Both of these rulings overturn laws supported by a clear majority of voters.  The Court, it seems, has lost its moral compass, and its realization that the Government is answerable to the People.  The blind are now trying to tell the rest of the country what to do.

Family is the very fabric of our society, and marriage is what holds families together.  This is equivalent to the root system of plants and trees holding the soil together and preventing erosion.  The family has been under attack for a long time now, and the already severe erosion of society is in danger of accelerating thanks to these rulings.  This is what happens when one is morally adrift in the sea of bad ideologies.

So let me step up and say that marriage between a man and a woman is an amazing miraculous institution that long predates the Court and that will remain long after the Court is gone.  Hey SCOTUS: Epic Fail today.  Would you seriously look our Founding Fathers in the eye and tell them that the defense of monogamous heterosexual marriage is unconstitutional?  What will you do when you are asked to give account for your actions, and how will you answer for your crimes when it becomes clear that you have done more harm to our Nation than our foreign enemies possibly could?

And let’s clear up a misconception about the Supreme Court:  People these days seem to believe that the Court is the supreme and final authority in our Nation.  Not so.  It is merely the Supreme Court of the United States, and it holds no power over the Executive or Legislative branches.  This is a factually true statement and there is abundant historical precedent for other branches of the Government ignoring Supreme Court rulings.

I’m well aware that Supreme Justices are appointed, not elected, but those who appoint them are elected.  That’s why we need to elect people who do have a functional moral compass.  But that’s alright:  I’ve chosen my side, and I’ll stand my ground, come what may.  One day America will be free again.  If we’re under so much attack, it’s only because we have so much potential for good.
