LA Judge: I'll Stand Bayou on Marriage
It took a brave southern judge, but the Left's perfect record on
same-sex "marriage" rulings finally snapped. Earlier today, Judge Martin
Feldman broke a string of 20-plus activist decisions and yielded to the
democratic process on Louisiana's marriage amendment. After more than a
year of constitutional contempt, Judge Feldman restored some semblance
of credibility -- and sanity -- to a federal bench that had been
rewriting marriage law since the Supreme Court's Windsor decision.Refusing to cave to the small -- but vocal chorus -- of liberals, Feldman said he was reluctant to throw away centuries of natural, social science, and legal tradition to satiate a radical fringe. "This Court is persuaded that Louisiana has a legitimate interest... whether obsolete in the opinion of some, or not, in the opinion of others," he wrote, "in linking children to an intact family formed by their two biological parents."
