Bachmann, Rand Paul and Others: Ridiculous Reactions to Supreme Court Ruling on DOMA

Well, you knew this was coming.

After the Supreme Court announced its ruling which struck down the Defense of Marriage Act, the "religious right" was out in full force making asinine statements.

First, let me repeat my stance on these kinds of Republicans-they're not Christians.  These people follow Republicanity.  A handful of Bible excerpts mixed with their delusional conservative ideology.  It's a dangerous entity which has essentially turned a political party into a faith based cult.

Some of the comments I've read from a few of these individuals are pathetically laughable.

For instance, Michele Bachmann (come on, you knew she was going to have something ridiculous to say) and her comments following the ruling:

    "Marriage was created by the hand of God.  No man, not even a Supreme Court, can undo what a holy God has instituted.  For thousands of years of recorded human history, no society has defended the legal standard of marriage as anything other than between man and woman.  Only since 2000 have we seen a redefinition of this foundational unit of society in various nations.  Today, the U.S. Supreme Court decided to join the trend, despite the clear will of the people's representatives through DOMA.  What the Court has done will undermine the best interest of children and the best interests of the United States."
