Ted Cruz Says SCOTUS 'Clearly Wrong' to Legalize Gay Marriage

I never claimed that it was. No reason it should have been needed.

Up until recently, everyone knew what marriage was. There is no reason to expect that anyone who had any hand in writing the original Constitution, nor any of the Amendments thereto, would have ever imagined that anything that they wrote would be twisted and corrupted to support a disgusting and immoral homosexual mockery of marriage. If they had anticipated that, then they surely would have chosen their words more carefully to prevent it.
The problem with that approach is, then you could say that 2A only applies to muskets, since they never could have foreseen the wide array of guns we have now.

Perhaps they weren't thinking of gay marriage because they didn't need to. All they needed to do was provide freedom for future generations, and the 14A did that.
 
Holly shit! What??!! You just can't seem to stick to your story. You seem really confused. All along you have been railing against "court made law" more accuratly known as case law, but granted some dispensation to te Obergefell decision saying that it was an approriate decision and not an example of court made law

In addition, you had voiced your unwaving support for "people to live and love who they whish" and for gay marriage, only to then say that you are "indifferernt " to it and now you want it left to the states. You have said that the 14th amendment protects gay marriage, but now that's out the window. Trying to understand what you believe is like trying to nail jello to the wall'

You want all marriage issues left to the states? What about interracial marriage? ...Loving V Virginia
I still.maintain that courts don't make laws, and that's been my stance all along

Obergefell was correct only in that it applied the issue of gay marriage to the constitution. The court itself did not try to deem that gay marriage was law. The problem comes when leftist activists then take those words.and start parroting that gay marriage is the law of the land. It's not, it's protected only by the cotus guarantee to equal protection. In that, it's solid.

Gay marriage IS a state issue, not a federal issue, thats how our cotus works. I've stated that I don't believe states will ban gay marriage, but it's certainly not the federal governments job to make it law, only the courts job to make sure states are not violating the protections of the cotus.
 
So now we are back to all people being protected under the constitution?? The constitution is the bedrock of the federal judiciary so HOW THE FUCK would the constitution "protect all people if the federal government has nothing to say about marriage? Christ you are a mess!

I've never stated anything different.

The 14A. I'm not a mess, I've been quite solid.
 
You are as solid as fresh cow flop before it gets baked in the sun. You still have three problems and they are not going away. You cannot say that the Constitution is adaptable while espousing an fundamentallt textualist philosophy. You cant rail against legislating from the bench but then make exception that suite you ( even if you later go back on that which you have with gay marriage, You can't have it both ways. You are realy a sad fucking mess.

I never said the cotus was "adaptable", I don't know where you get that from.

I've never made an exception that suits me. I'm solid in that the courts can't legislate from the bench. Where have I said differently?

...what's the 3rd problem? You said there were 3...were missing one...
 
A major contradiction in ONE sentence!!
When I say adaptable, I mean in the sense that dems mean it, in other words, fluid, changing it to suit your whims. The words of the cotus were written to cover a multitude of freedoms, anything that would be considered a due process and equal protections issue would be in there as well. The cotus is solid, but it's protections are wide.

queers should get married and suffer just like all us red blooded men who took the plunge

The founders did not write the 14th A,

Same shit, differnent post,Just with slightlt different words. You are trying to play both sides of the fence. The fact is that a Oberefell estblished Constilyutional LAW. The fact that you deny that it is law or do not want to call it law does not mean that it is not law.
 
I never said the cotus was "adaptable", I don't know where you get that from.
You said that it was not adopable but that that the original language was flexable and could be applied to changing and unforseen issues -or something to that effect. So what the fuck are you saying? Still trying to have it both ways

Yes you have been consitent in saying that, but you also have said that the SCOTUS protects gay rights. They do it by way of case law but you refuse to call it law

Cut the crap with the doublespeak already!

Show me where the legislative body wrote, and passed that law?

Cotus law is merely precedent. We've seen that precedent is not always good. Take roe for example, since it was overturned, that is now precedent, do you agree that it is good precedent? If scotus overturns obergefell, are you going to accept that as law??

That's exactly right. The cotus is fixed, but its protections are wide. As written, it is future proof, it is not until people start trying to change it does it lose its ability to be future proof.
