Have you got a shortcut on your keyboard for buzzwords and phrases like "liberal activist judges"?
We have indeed gone over 200 years without the need for an ammendment banning gay marriages. Back in the good old days, we used to (at various times) imprison them, lock them up in mental institutions, etc., etc., etc.
Until very recent times the very acts involved in expressing their sexuality were illegal - and yet (liberal activst, I suppose) judges FINALLY got around to recognizing those laws as in violation of the spirit of the constitution. Just like ownership of human beings as property, and just like the wholesale denial of civil and basic human rights to persons of specific races, we don't do that any more.
Come to think of it, the term "liberal activist judges" was applied to members of the judiciary who found segregation illegal. Kinda fitting, IMHO>
