The conservative apoplexy you

The conservative apoplexy you look for is what I expected to be showing up by now. Maybe it still will. Of course Glenn Beck will probably not complain nor will Romney, in all likelihood.

The case supporting the decision comes from a mix of libertarian arguments, defense of civil rights, liberal values regarding freedom of choice and religion, and a belief in the right to privacy. The ruling is more narrow than the headlines suggest, it does not redefine legal marriage in any way, it only strikes down a Utah law which criminalized cohabitation, but it will have a large affect among polygamists and quite possibly large ramifications in other areas. The interview which can now be listened to brings up many facets of the previous situation under the old law that I was not aware of and which wouldn't have occurred to me otherwise. Johnathan Turley, the lawyer who represented the winning side, has a statement linked below. You will recall him, he is a Constitutional Law Professor who got a lot of air time on MSNBC back when it was Bush who was violating the Constitution. I don't watch often enough to be sure, but I think he has pretty much been disappeared from there since Bush is done and so now his criticisms on Constitutional issues reflect on Obama.

Where is the moral outrage from the right wing Conservatives? Isn't this potentially more of a threat to their concept of 'family values' than gay marriage? Where's the Conservative apoplexy?

At this time the interview

At this time the interview has not yet been posted but if, as I expect, this blows up as a news event I very much recommend listening to this excellent interview program out of Salt Lake City.
