The SCOTUS refused to stay the judge's order. The Supreme court has rejected nullification. There is no issue in this situation (and it is THIS situation) of Congressional power as the Congress has not passed any laws for Judge Moore to fight regarding the issuance of marriage licenses.

If any commentator on Fox, as was suggested in the earlier post, that state law trumps federal law he or she is a fool and did not bother to do the same homework as you did. I doubt you will hear any similar statement on any other network. Perhaps the guest who posted the comment about the discussion on Fox can return and provide a transcript as most recent Fox bits are still on their website.

there is nothing fair or balanced about a discussion of "Is the Federal Constitution superior to that of the State of Alabama?" There is only one side of that issue and no need for balance. To suggest this is an open issue for discussion is to give support to legal anarchists.
