None of which has occurred.At some point I will read the decision but frankly I couldn't care less. There's no point in you caring either, it's over and done with.In case you didn't hear, your argument didn't hold water, in the last place that it mattered...
Oh right, 5 of 9 decided they knew better, the other 4 made the same arguments I have. Did you bother to read the dissent? The 5 decided they were not bound by history, tradition, precedent or the democratic process, they imposed their views with no legal foundations to do so, something the court is getting really good at.
That's were you're really WRONG, this just amplifies the need for judicial reform.
If judges and Justices can ignore both the text of our Constitution and its legislative intent as occurred in this decision, and they use their office of public trust to impose their personal whims and fancies as the rule of law, we are then no longer living under the rule of law and a constitutionally limited system of government. Judges and Justices engaging in such conduct must be punished ,,, no punishment to be left off the table.

The Obergefell Court majority based its ruling on settled, accepted 14th Amendment jurisprudence, in accordance with the Constitution (Articles III and VI), its case law, and the rule of law.
The Obergefell Court majority did nothing 'wrong,' it did nothing in 'violation' of the Constitution, and in no way 'ignored' the intent of the Framing Generation – and Justice Kennedy certainly did nothing to warrant 'impeachment.'
Now, that you don't like that settled and accepted 14th Amendment jurisprudence has no bearing whatsoever on the case, you have no authority to determine what the Constitution means, the Constitution affords that sole authority to the judiciary.
What you fail to realize is that your reactionary, errant 'minimalist,' 'literalist,' 'strict constructionist' Constitutional dogma is subjective perception, devoid of merit, and in no way supported by the history or text of the Founding Document.
actually it was criticized for not even mentioning "settled accepted 14th amendment jurisprudence"..........you inevitably will repeat that lie tho
Thomas talked a little about flaws in "substantive due process" but majority opinion didnt even bother to try and use that dogma...it just used empty flowery language to justify their feelings on the issue....with some legalese to salve their consciences and deceive the public
"in no way 'ignored' the intent of the framing generation".... so you think the intent was to legalize gay marriage?...of course not.....you are incapable of using words logically.
