Mondays in Michigan – Definition of Marriage to be Decided by Supreme Court

michiganflagIn 2004, the voters of Michigan voted to place the definition of marriage into its State Constitution.

§ 25 Marriage.

Sec. 25.

To secure and preserve the benefits of marriage for our society and for future generations of children, the union of one man and one woman in marriage shall be the only agreement recognized as a marriage or similar union for any purpose.
History: Add. Init., approved Nov. 2, 2004, Eff. Dec. 18, 2004

And now the Supreme Court will hear the case of the two lesbian women who have children and whose “marriage” is not recognized in Michigan.

If the Supreme Court agrees with the women, every voter’s rights in Michigan have been effectively taken away.

This activism attacks federalism, the rights of the people who populate the States to have a say in how their State is governed, and is not how these things are supposed to be decided.

Governor Snyder stood by the constitutional right for Michiganders to decide the issue, ‘s “final say” in the matter.  I applauded the Governor when he stood for the constitution, both Michigan’s and the US’ documents.  But he now says, in a shallow and intellectually vacant comment,

“We appreciate that the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear an issue that has been divisive in our state and others. It’s important for the same-sex marriage question to be resolved once and for all at the highest level,” Snyder said in a statement.

The people are the highest level, Governor, look it up.

By the way, when is that racist head of the Department of Justice resigning?  How is he still there?

Obama: Find Me A Judge!

From , “White House Tells Supreme Court to Stay Away From Obamacare.”

Hm. So, Obama wants to find a liberal judge to rule in favor of the legislation with a liberal argument just as thorough as Judge Vinson’s ruling was. Heck, the judge may even be female and ethnic, went to Yale or Harvard, something like that, throw all of it in for good measure so the Democrats can really get their fingernails dug in to what they believe is right. So that when it goes to the Supreme Court, everybody can fight about how smart the liberal judge is and how old the Constitution is. The judge can come up with a 300 page ruling just to outdo Vinson’s ruling of 78 pages, and use his research and mind without regard to the constitution.

But Vinson’s ruling was pretty damn impressive.
