The Supreme Court's role is not to legislate.  And they legislated thrice this week. Kagan and Ginsburg should face impeachment for non-recusal.

Why should they? There was clearly no conflict of interest. All they did was officiate some marriages that were legal in the states in which they preformed them. If you go by your logic, everyone by Kagan should have recused themselves because they are in heterosexual marriages. Also Thomas should have recused himself from all the ACA cases because his wife was actively involved with groups affiliated with groups trying to kill the law. Seriously, stop crying and get over it, you lost. As MLK said "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice" and justice finally came on Friday! Cheesy

Officiating a "marriage" like that implies and equates support. Period.  It is a direct case of bias. They should face impeachment.

Your idea of justice is unelected officials creating a right that never existed, at the expense of Christian religious freedom.


Any and all GOP candidates that do not support a constitutional amendment will not receive support from the pro-family community. Primary or general.

It doesn't matter anymore, there is no such thing as "gay marriage" anymore. For everyone its just marriage. No more need for the adjective. So really Ginsburg and Kagan just performed normal marriages.    

Also luckily the "pro-family" community is the weakest its been in decades. They don't really matter anymore, other than to produce Republican candidates that are too conservative for mainstream America. Just look at the polls. Americans in record numbers supports gay marriage, marijuana legalization, removing racist symbols, and right to chose.

This past week has truly been amazing. Confederate flags are coming down everywhere, Obamacare was declared Constitutional... again, and we now finally have marriage equality. America took a giant step forward this week.

Back to the topic, Cruz is crazy and I would love to see him be the nominee. He'd be lucky to get 200 electoral votes in 2016.
