States’ Rights: OK for Dopeheads; Hateful Hillbilly Bible-Thumpers, Not So Much

Posted on | August 29, 2013 | 84 Comments

A headline that included the word “butt-f*ckers” — without the asterisk — crossed my mind here. However, because Ace of Spades is on a tear against the deliberate troll-baiting at Slate, I passed it up.

Anyway, the re-election of President Obama meant that the gay agenda would be imposed top-down by executive authority, and the Internal Revenue Service will now recognize same-sex marriage without regard for whether it is legal in the couple’s state of residence.

The “Don’t Ask Bradley Manning, Don’t Tell Chelsea Manning” policy was wiped out by a stroke of Obama’s pen, and the Supreme Court has voided the Defense of Marriage Act, so that the “emerging awareness” doctrine articulated by Justice Kennedy in the 2003 Lawrence v. Texas ruling has advanced to the point that, with the de facto federal imposition of gay marriage (despite constitutional amendments to the contrary in more than 30 states) we are now a judicial hop, skip and jump from a Supreme Court decision mandating compulsory sodomy.

OK, maybe that was a bit of hyperbole, but (a) Slate does these cheap stunts daily, and (b) clearly we have drifted off into that part of the map marked “Here Be Dragons” and there’s no telling what’s next.

The Constitution is now whatever liberals say it is.

Mark Newton and Peter Truong could not be reached for comment.

While state-based opposition to gay marriage is thus rendered meaningless by Treasury Department decree, however, the Department of Justice has decided that federal drug laws are optional and if states legalize marijuana, hey, toke up, dude. Party on.

So, basically, Thursday, Aug. 29, 2013, was cause for celebration by dopeheads and buttf*ckers. In Obama’s America, sodomy and sinsemilla are the most important national priorities.

Bottom line: We’re all Andrew Sullivan’s bitches now.

And if you don’t like it, shut up, haters.

    Obama, his handlers, and the MSM have taken us to a place that, when in the future a POTUS (Dem or GOP, there’s no daylight between the two) decides s/he is Dictator-for-Life, s/he can do it and no one on the Left will have the integrity or principle to resist. The day after that happens, Prognazis and TEA Partiers will join hands in solidarity before being machine-gunned into mass graves.
    That is how the world works. That is how the world has worked for millenia. Only our American Left ignores that.

    But the ultra secret right wing has plans. In the advent of a WMD attack on D.C. Fox News will take to the air urging an orderly evacuation. Conservatives and Republicans use 95, 270 and 66. While liberals, Democrats and and sexual disoriented people use 495.

    With luck we’ll get a sound bite of Pelosi saying to Reid, “At least it’s moving. “

    It’s probably a case of of “nobody cares what conservatives think.” Keep posting Tabitha, Trust me, most posts I make never get a response. What’s important is you state your views. Even though we don’t reply… we still read it.

    Actually what the DOJ (justice. now THERE’S an oxymoron or two) said was that they won’t sue the STATES over the marijuana laws.

    Citizens who grow or sell or toke better watch their azz as the DOJ reserves the right to send a swat team over to rip up your plants and plant your butt in a Federal slam slam tout suite.

    So it’s double jeopardy and no all the, all the outs in free.

    Nice way to screw the citizens. Talk about the sword of Damocles.

    Wrong. A majority voted twice for “fundamental transformation”.

    The details of exactly what that meant just weren’t spelled out. Not that most Democrat voters would have cared if they were. The important part was they got to feel good about themselves.
