The Onion really hit it out of the park with this one! http://www.theonion.com/articles/supreme-court-on-gay-marriage-sure-who-cares,31812/



“Yeah, of course gay men and women can get married. Who gives a shit?” said Chief Justice John Roberts, who interrupted attorney Charles Cooper’s opening statement defending Proposition 8, which rescinded same-sex couples’ right to marry in California. “Why are we even seriously discussing this?”

“Does anyone else up here care about this?” Roberts added as his eight colleagues began shaking their heads and saying, “No,” “Nah,” and “I also don’t care about this.” “Great. Same-sex marriage is legal in the United States of America. Do we have anything of actual import on the docket, or are we done for the day?”

“I have to interject, Mr. Cooper,” Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said as the attorney argued that the government has legitimate reasons to discourage same-sex couples from getting married. “Do you honestly care this much about this issue? Because if you do, you’re a real goddamn idiot. Actually, you sound as dumb as dog shit, and you are wasting our time.”

“Get married, don’t get married, do whatever you want,” Roberts said. “It’s the opinion of this court that we don’t give two shits what you do.”
Ahh, if only that last quote wasn't satire... :(

The US must be "progressive". The more "progressive", the more "non progressive" countries there will be to “correct” with military intervention.

It's stupid, because it clearly comes from a supporter of gay marriage, and presents this case as a big waste of time...but ignores which side is the reason the case is at the Supreme Court in the first place. Would the author say "who gives a sh**" to the initial lawsuit against Prop. 8? Bet not.

It sickens me how stupid we the people are now.

We have a group of people begging the government for the privlege to get married.

Demanding "constitutional rights".

1 side saying its not the other side saying it is and neither side have no idea what the constitution says.

How the hell do you have a "constitutional right" to something that isn't even mentioned in the constitution?

How can you have a "constitutional right" to something when the constitution doesn't give us rights?

The constitution was written to give the government "PRIVLEGES" NOT TO GRANT THE PEOPLE RIGHTS!!!

Its impossible to "grant" someone a "right" because that is a contradiction in terms.

Anything granted to you is a privlege.

Our "RIGHTS" are natural,self evident,inherent,handed down from God,born with them!!!

Yet we have a group of people asking the government for permission to get married.

"Marriage" falls under "life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness"....period....PERIOD

It really sickens me how dumb we the people have become.

I will marry who ever I want. Try and stop me.
