Cuccinelli wants the court to revive the prohibition on consensual anal and oral sex, for both gay and straight people. Oh gosh, looks like you're wrong again, at least on one aspect of this case. the case has nothing to do with sex between consenting adults of the same sex or opposite sex, but...

Polygamy. Perhaps a "right" marriage to close relatives or even minors. So you think there's a danger that if marriage between two people of the same sex is found to be a right, then we'll head right down that old slippery slope to polygamy and people marrying members of their immediate family or...

How do gays getting married hurt or degrade your marriage? I've never heard an answer to this. What is a real answer to my question. You guys love to spout crap and not back it up. What is the real harm? (not imagined, not felt, not dreamed up in the fairy tales, etc...) There is no evidence of det...

Which once again imposes non-existent "rights" that have never been found in the Constitution or half the country. With huge implications for society as a whole.

Most Supreme Court justices do believe that the right of privacy lives in the Constitution and they continue to rule in that direction. They also understand that "equal protection" applies to all people in this country regardless of sex, race, and sexual preference. That's why they surely will rule ...

There has never (been) a right to sodomy.To cite just a few relatively new rulings. No, the liberal justices have not been very consistent at all.The Lawrence v Texas ruling which declared anti-sodomy laws unconstitutional was a 6-3 decision.The six were Anthony Kennedy, John Paul Stevens, David Sou...
