President’s Statement on Massachusetts’ Court Ruling
Statement by the President
February 4, 2004
STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT
Today’s ruling of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court is deeply troubling. Marriage is a sacred institution between a man and a woman. If activist judges insist on re-defining marriage by court order, the only alternative will be the constitutional process. We must do what is legally necessary to defend the sanctity of marriage.
Wouldn’t a Presidential statement against “judicial activism” be a little more resonant if it came from a President who wasn’t in the White House because of it? I mean, if anyone should appreciate the value of a “one-vote majority” judicial ruling, it should be President Bush.
Oh. I see. That’s different. Well. It’s always different with him, now, isn’t it.
What he said…
John Scalzi hit the nail on the head with this one. Our President – a man who owes his very job to a politically motivated Supreme Court – has gone on the record to complain about “activist judges”… President’s Statement
