By a single vote, the Connecticut Supreme Court today became the third state high court – after Massachusetts and California – to impose so-called "same-sex marriage" on its citizenry. Circumventing the legislative and executive branches, the will of the people and the constitutionally-mandated process for lawmaking, the court ruled in that the state cannot deny marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

Read the CT Supreme Court's 4-3 decision in Kerrigan v. Connecticut Department of Public Health.

A majority of one judge on the Connecticut Supreme Court created a right to same-sex marriage. A majority of one judge on the California Supreme Court also ushered in same-sex marriage against the clear will of the people. The people of California have to pass a constitutional amendment in November to re-establish marriage as one man and one woman! Florida and Arizona are also voting on amendments to guard against judicial activists who would redefine marriage with the stroke of a pen.

It was the judges, not the people, who opened the floodgates to abortion. It was the judges, not the people, who ruled against the Pledge of Allegiance, the Ten Commandments, and prayer. The kind of judges our next President will appoint will affect America for several decades.

We could not have a more important election about America's future than the one we will face this year. We already have the most liberal, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual Congress in the history of America. We cannot afford to unleash an unbridled leftist, secular, anti-religious agenda on America and our children. Economic problems are only a symptom of this Nation's problem; they are not the cause. We are calling Americans to stand together and return to this Nation's core values.
