Prop 8

Although i entirely disagree with opponents to prop 8, i think the major issue that confronts this nation is described really well by Orson Scott Card. he wrote last week:

We need a constitutional amendment declaring that no court, federal or state, can strike down or alter any law passed by a legislative body except when it contradicts the plain language of the applicable constitution, as understood at the time of passage.

The unconstitutional usurpation of powers by the judges must be brought to an immediate stop.

But with Democrats in control of the Congress, there is no chance of getting that body to propose a constitutional amendment that will correct this gross abuse -- again, because they have only seen it used to enact their agenda. Short-sighted as they are, they will not oppose this judicial power until and unless it is used against them. Then, of course, they'll scream bloody murder and behave much more badly than the too-long complacent American moderates and conservatives.

This is part of a very long article that i found very insightful and interesting and definelty worth the time. You can find the rest of the article HERE.
