Since 1888. More than a dozen times since 1888 the Supreme Court has recognized marriage as a fundamental right. It's nothing less than that. It is among the most intimate and personal choices a person makes and is central to the liberty guaranteed by the 14th Amendment. It's substantive due process, a vital Constitutright. I'd advise you to familiarize yourself with it.
Uh...then why did this country outlaw polygamy? Isn't that form a marriage a fundamental right, especially considering it has a first amendment basis with freedom of religion?
Bottom line, when it comes to the kind of marriage you like, you're quick to invoke the Constitution (though it doesn't apply and should be left up to the states). When it's not the kind you like, you don't make a peep. If this had been a polygamist marriage case going to the Supreme Court, instead of a gay marriage case, you and a lot of others here would have been arguing against polygamist marriage and saying there was no Constitutional basis for it. Your hypocrisy is so transparent it's not even funny.
I'll answer this. Ivy I don't a shit what two consenting two adults do behind closed doors. That includes polygamy. Fuck it, I don't care. I can't speak for all the other "libs" but I can speak for me. You know what's hypocrisy? You hardcore conservatives preaching for less government, yet you want to decide what Americans can and can't do in their bedrooms or in a marriage ceremony. That my friend is hypocrisy at its greatest. Nosing in on that is BS stacked a mile high. That includes the government intruding in on the Catholic Church. Leave it alone
