No comment on gay rights...

Today the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear arguments over a challenge to the year-old Massachusetts Supreme Court decision that legalized gay marriage in that state.

The Supreme Court on Monday sidestepped a dispute over gay marriages, rejecting a challenge to the nation's only law sanctioning such unions.

Justices had been asked by conservative groups to overturn the year-old decision by the Massachusetts Supreme Court legalizing gay marriage. They declined, without comment.

Conservative groups who brought the lawsuit tried to have the highest federal court in the land on the grounds that this one state's marital law violates the guarantee of a republican form of government. Gays are destroying our democracy, I guess.
Their attorney stated that the federal Constitution should "protect the citizens of Massachusetts from their own state supreme court's usurpation of power." Isn't it great when the crazy right-wing nutcases in the red-states, who spent the entire last election hollering about how the blue states are filled with elitist liberals and should be ignored a all costs, take such an active and helpful role in Massachusetts state law? They are only trying to protect the will of the people from the tyranny of a homo-loving judiciary!

The city attorney from Boston had told justices in court papers that the people who filed the suit have not shown they suffered an injury and could not bring a challenge to the Supreme Court. "Deeply felt interest in the outcome of a case does not constitute an actual injury," she said.

Nor does your hate of the equal rights for homosexual Americans.
