I know this man, as a former SCOTUS clerk, knows that he is completely full of shit. But apparently none of that matters if it means you can pander to a group for some votes.

Quote:Regarding the situation in Kentucky....A government official attempting to implement their interpretation of theology in civil law is not a matter of religious liberty. It is the exact opposite of that. The First Amendment serves as a protection against an establishment of religion by government authorities over their citizens, as well as to protect a citizen's free exercise of their faith. As a government official, the clerk has the right to believe that same-sex marriage violates her religious faith, but she does not have the right to use the power of her office to enforce that faith on others.

If we could just get more Politicians to step across the aisle. BTW, Cruz is a great many things, but dumb is not one of them.

He is claiming that in America elected officials are allowed to define the law based on their own personal religious beliefs. So I know for a fact that he is either dumb or a liar. You can choose whichever one you want.

A former AG who clerked for the SCOTUS knows that she wasn't "arrested... for living according to her faith". He also knows that this country is America.

It's called pandering to a base. Don't act like you're naive to the practice, or that it's exclusive to just one side of the spectrum.

Oh now it's all Republicans and not just those on this board. I do like the brain dead part. Which ones are you smarter than? You smarter than Ted Cruz?
