WHEN WE DON'T GET OUR OWN WAY!

      In the Des Moines Register, after the Supreme Court decision concerning Gay marriages, our Iowa Senators and Governor were interviewed for their opinions. It always seems that when a decision doesn't go the way a particular politician wants it to go, they always start screaming "states rights."

       I am grateful the way our system works. Most things that do matter, it is a good thing that the law applies to all of the land. If not, in many cases, all we would be is a bunch of small countries tied together by who knows what!
