SCOTUS Obamacare, trade, likely win on gay marriage, Dems even leveraged horrendous crime in Charleston to put GOP on defensive…

Ummm.

The SCT found that the case was so lame that they never ever got to the federalism arguments proffered. It was a drafting error so minor in the eyes of the Roberts majority that you have to wonder why any court below should have seen it otherwise unless they intended to do so for partisan hackery grounds (as Scalia’s dissent clearly shows).

And the reason that the GOP is on the defensive on a wide range of issues is that they’re wrong on those issues. Clearly wrong.

Supporting white supremacists and racists who let their Confederate flags fly, knowing full well what that flag represents and means in US history - yeah, that’s a great way to win friends and influence people to your cause (except the Southern white right wingers who are already supporting the GOP despite the fact that they are hardest hit by GOP policies that would include destroying the ACA, shifting tax burdens on to the poor and middle class, and otherwise voting against their self interest).

Thing about gay marriage is that it has no effect on my own marriage, or the marriages of any other hetero couple. None. And some of the biggest opponents to SSM have such little regard for marriage that they have regularly married and divorced like clockwork - or have engaged in infidelity too many times to count.
