Also Nebe, if you are curious to know why Cruz is so troubled by what SCOTUS did...it's not because he hates gays, but rather, because he respects the Constitution.
I am in favor of gay marriage. If it were put to a vote here in CT, I would cast a vote to legalize it. That being said, I am equally sickened by what SCOTUS did, because they had no constitutional authority to do so. It's a state issue, not a federal issue. And these 9 judges are not elected, they are appointed for life. So, what scares people like me and Ted Cruz, is the notion that 9 people who are not answerable to anyone, can decide when the Constitution really exists and when it doesn't. That's territory better left to elected officials, who can be voted out if we don't like what they are doing.
