Well how's this for a study in contrasts? Wingnut opponents of marriage equality in Utah are calling for defiance to the tyranny of the federal judiciary, because as we all know states can ignore federal judges, under the time-honored legal principle of "I read it on the internet, this will definitely work."

<i>county sheriffs are the most important law enforcement peoples in the Constitutition</i>
The origins of the Law Enforcement Peoples are obscure, from an ethnological standpoint. They are thought to have branched off from the Gauls sometime during the period of the fourth to second century BCE, in the area now known as Alsace. Some authorities, however, argue a for a closer kinship with the Frisians, of what are now the Low Countries, based on linguistic similarities.
The Sheriff tribe, on the other hand, can be specifically traced back to its founding patriarch, Nottingham, in the 12th century CE. No modern scholarship supports the traditional Sheriff conceit that all Law Enforcement culture in fact derives from Sheriff culture, and not the other way around. The central tenet of <i>County</i> Sheriff chauvinism, that <i>they</i> are in fact the &#039;most important&#039; of the Law Enforcement Peoples is particularly contentious among Law Enforcements in general, and even among Sheriffs in particular, many of whom argue that Counties are actually just a sub-group of the Sheriff nation and have never constituted a separate or autonomous tribe. These partisans argue that the admittedly unique ethnic concepts of the Counties, notably the obsession with/fear of the practice of &#039;throat cramming&#039;, are not sufficient in themselves to distinguish County Sheriffs as a tribe distinct from the larger Sheriff community.

I&#039;ve been reviewing my copy of the Constitution to see where it defines the constitutional role and duties of county sheriffs and I&#039;m not finding it. He must be referring to the King James version.
Been reading <i>Under the Banner of Heaven,</i> an amazing yarn about Mormon fundamentalist polygamists, and encountered this in a footnote:
<blockquote> In 1993, LDS Apostle Boyd K Packer...pronounced that the church faces three major threats: &quot;the gay-lesbian movement, the feminist movement, and the ever-present challenge from the so-called scholars or intellectuals.&quot;</blockquote> Is it merely a coincidence that this is also the Republican Party platform?

I have a feeling Trestin Meacham will be coming out with a new diet book.

&quot;Ramming things down our throats&quot; is how right wingers describe &quot;democracy&quot;.
I must admit I&rsquo;m having a schadenfreude moment here due to all the money the Mormons spent in California to help pass Prop 8.

Is that a terrifying book or what?
