A Bill has been introduced to allow congress to reverse the decisions of the Supreme Court. So much for separation of powers!

I don't think this has a chance. If moderate Reps won't even blink at the FMA, they're certainly not going to urinate all over the Constitution's provisos for checks and balances. Just another power play to appeal to the base. "Don't worry, we won't let no joo-dishal aktuvists let no queers marry!"

Of course. Its remains no less disgusting that politicians can wave the flag with one hand while using the constitution to wipe their bottoms with the other.
