      <![CDATA[I adore the way you throw around words like "unfounded" and "ahistorical" as if they were somehow objective, factual terms. The courts who have made those decisions in favor of LGBT equality would have quite a few things to say about that.

      <![CDATA[On the contrary: I have great faith in our system of government--not just the executive and legislative branches, but also the judicial branch. I'm not the sort of person who views court rulings as "unfounded"; in cases where the law is unclear, America's judges use their skills of reasoning, paired with principles of precedent and stare decisis, to resolve the issues at hand.
