Our nation took another step away from freedom in the name of tolerance. The Supreme Court said that states had no ability to define marriage. Gay marriage is now ok.
Here's the problem. The Federal Government doesn't issue marriage liscences. Marriage is 100% a state issue. I know. I've performed weddings in four states.
This is just one more case of the liberals in Washington stripping away our rights, especially the first amendment. This isn't equality. In truth, in everything that is right, the government should recognize "civil unions" for hetero or homo. Marriage should be left where it started, in the church, ordained by God.

Enemy of the State?
So... our country seems to have some trouble lately. With Fort Hood shootings, Sandyhook Elementary, the Boston bombings, we are under attack. There are nearly regular shootings by the mentally unstable and attacks by terrorists.
Yet, our government seems to be confused as to who the enemies of our nation are. The State Department went after our dead ambassador. The DOJ went after the media. The IRS went after conservatives. The NSA is going after everyone.
This, for some reason, is surprising. I don't know why. They've been doing it for years. We knew they were doing it. There's a movie called "Enemy of the State" staring Gene Hackman, John Voit, and Will Smith. We're living it. Political opponents are enemies, while people trying to kill us must be our victims.
That said, if you're asking me is this Snowden or whatever his name is is a hero for leaking, my answer is no. If he thought he was being brave and doing the right thing, he wouldn't have run away. He would have stood in public and taken the consequences. That's the difference between standing for a conviction and just being a turd.
In the mean time, our nation's leaders need to learn the difference between our friends and our enemies. The IRS did this political bullying because Obama has created a culture of corruption and favoritism. He's McCarthyism and Nixon all rolled in one, and no one cares. It's really sad.
