Ha ha! A fuming Alito said this:

For today’s majority, it does not matter that the right to same-sex marriage lacks deep roots or even that it is contrary to long-established tradition. The Justices in the majority claim the authority to confer constitutional protection upon that right simply because they believe that it is fundamental.

Imagine that.

The fact that the supreme court has to decide these things says awful, awful things about our democratic legislative system.

Scalia's dissent is hilarious, and I hate the fact that I see his point nearly always, though always disagreeing with his conclusions.

Thomas's was just the worst.

I was once complaining about Alito, several years ago, to my Mom, a lawyer, and I thought she was going to try to calm me down with a little judiciousness, and she said, "You know, he reminds me exactly of Eichmann. The same pasty-faced uncharismatic murderously evil bureaucrat. He even sound like Eichmann." And she knew from Eichmann.
