Oh pish posh. The right of gays to marry was found in the 14th amendment, which as part of the federal Constitution overrides contrary provisions in state constitutions. You'd be agreeing with me, of course, if the federal right at stake were the 2nd Amendment.
What hypocrisy? Do you even know the meaning of the term? I early on urged the Alabama GOP to rescind its nomination, precisely because I wanted a conservative to win the seat. Third trimester abortions? Of course, I'm against. Gun control? I support the 2nd Amendment as construed by the Heller court. And as for supporting the liberal agenda, I had a fascinating interaction with a colleague this morning who's stone cold Dem partisan and knows I'm a Republican. He said he was hoping against hope that Moore would win, because of the easy damage it would allow his party to inflict on Republicans leading up to the 2018 elections. I told him that the GOP had dodged a bullet.
Fine. Quote me where in the 14th Amendment it says that homosexuals can marry. QUOTE IT.
You can't.
It isn't there. You are trying to use a misapplication of the 14th to supersede the 10th.
The Federal Government has NO (zero, nada, none) Constitutional Authority to regulate marriage, either as a civil matter or a sacrament. It is a usurpation of power.
The Heller Court? What "Heller Court"? Chief Justice Heller? Nonsense.
The second amendment says
the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. They government has usurped that power too, to the tune of thousands of laws and regulations.
No you got the homo-loving gun control supporting baby slaughtering totalitarian guy you wanted. You have exposed yourself and your bullshit once again.
As for the GOP? It was carrying in its waistband and has grievously wounded itself. It's a dead party walking--the bleeding out will take a while, but it is going to happen.
