Levin on DOMA decision: 'It's an abomination'

Leading off the program with the judicial tyranny of the day, Levin launched into the unmoored, breakaway Court. Mark asks who will check the five justices on the Supreme Court when the rest of society thinks they're wrong? The way it works now, nobody...that's nowhere in the Constitution!
"This is all a political ruse, a power grab by the liberals on the Court. And Anthony Kennedy, who feels that this is his issue, whether it was same-sex sodomy in the Lawrence decision, a host of other decisions, or this decision, because he wrote this decision. And the four activist judges on the Supreme Court were happy to have him do it. And the decision is essentially incomprehensible. No, it’s understandable in terms of its flow, but substantively, it’s an abomination. And that's what happens when a handful of people twist and turn the Constitution and judicial precedent and the facts to come out where they want them to come out. It's yet more damage that's been done to our belief in the Supreme Court and the federal system, more damage that's been done to the Constitution."
"The idea that the Court would step in, and not even the Court, five individuals on the Court, a majority, and redefine marriage for purposes of the federal government, and do something much more sinister than that with respect to California...is more evidence to me that we live in a post-constitutional America. Absolutely. No question about it."

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show: The Supreme Court made its decision reversing the Defense of Marriage Act, as well as on Proposition 8 in California and Mark explains that we now have the Courts taking power away from the states to decide issues. The Supreme Court is now involved with regulating and making law on culture and culture wars in America. Mark explains federalism, if we believe the states have power or authority for themselves or not, as well as the subject of nullification. Mark says this isn't judicial review, it's judicial tyranny.
