That is one of your more ridiculous posts. They saw the entire House stand and place their hands on their heart, and sneer at the ruling of the Court...and at the authority of the Law. This was a lower level appeals court notorious for having its rulings reversed This was a 2 to 1 decision, not unanimous, even by this highly liberal court. Remember, the first judge to hear the case threw it out of court -- how come you don't respect his* decision? (After all, that was "the authority of the Law", too). The Court had just said it was unconstitutional, and thus illegal. At times in our history, the HIGHEST court in the land has decreed that slavery is constitutional and thus legal ... do you feel that that decision should have put that matter to rest? The Supreme Court also held that "separate but equal" treatment of blacks is constitutional and thus legal ... should that have ended that issue? Courts in the South have routinely refused to prosecute lynch mobs ... should we all respect that as "The authority of Law"? Don't you have any respect for the freedom of expression that allows our citizens, including members of Congress, to sneer at any court decision they think is wrong?
