Why do conservatives allow this argument to stand without showing the MANY MANY situations where the court has OVERTURNED conservative legislation enacted by the “democratically elected” body?
Mr. President, sir,….uh the knife cuts both ways!!!! Have you EVER complained ONCE when duly passed pro-life legislation was struck down?????
It cuts both ways and moreso against conservative bills….
Republicans have taken sharp issue with President Barack Obama’s warning to the Supreme Court on the Obamacare case, charging that the president is seeking to “intimidate” the high court.

GOP presidential candidates turned the tables on the media during January 7th evening debate in New Hampshire on ABC . Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich responded to a highly emotional and liberally slanted question about homosexual marriage. His comments were arguably the most important point of the evening:
I just want to raise the point about the news media bias.
A great post from Bruce Walker at AmericanThinker.com. Here’s an excerpt:
Conservatives sometimes get too distracted by dollars and deficits and debt. These matter, of course — they matter a great deal in political life. But the deconstruction of the American economy is a consequence, not a cause, of our fundamental problem, which is moral.
The road back requires first of all that politicians who are asked to cure social problems be allowed to tell the truth about why these problems exist.
In a recent CNN interview, former New York City mayor and possible presidential aspirant, Rudy Giuliani had these words of wisdom for the Republican Party:
…get the heck out of people’s bedrooms and let these things get decided by states….I don’t know [why] the heck the Republican Party wants to be getting involved in people’s sexual lives and personal lives so much….Stay out of it, and I think we would be a much more successful political party if we stuck to our economic conservative roots.… Continue Reading

Moreover, the “civil unions” bill says:
“This Act shall be liberally construed and applied to promote its underlying purpose, which is to provide both eligible same-sex and opposite-sex couples the opportunity to obtain the same protection, benefits, and responsibilities afforded by the laws of Illinois to parties to a marriage.”… Continue Reading
Sixty-one state lawmakers in the Illinois House cave into pressure from Gov. Patrick Quinn and Speaker Michael Madigan.
Despite an outpouring of calls, emails and faxes against redefining marriage and family, legislators in the Illinois House passed SB 1716 on Nov. 30th by a vote of 61 to 52.
Only two pro-family lawmakers, Rep. Ron Stephens (R-Highland) and Rep. David Reis (R-Olney)–both from downstate–had the courage to challenge this anti-family legislation on the House floor during debate while nine pro-homosexual lawmakers (2 Republicans and 7 Democrats) made emotional manipulative appeals for the bill’s passage.… Continue Reading
