Republican presidential hopeful Ted Cruz accuses the U.S. Supreme Court justices who voted that same-sex marriage is the law of the land and to uphold the Affordable Care Act of being "politicians" on the Obama team.
The five justices "put on an Obama jersey" and "politicized the Court," Sen. Cruz, R-Texas, said on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday. Cruz said the decisions by "five unelected lawyers declaring they are the rulers of 320 million Americans" were "an assault on democracy" that violated the justices' oaths of office.
"They rewrote Obamacare, forcing that failed law on millions of Americans, and then the next day, five justices disregarded the text of the Constitution and purported to strike down the marriage laws of all 50 states," Cruz said. "If you want to change the marriages laws of your state, the Constitutional mechanism is to convince your fellow citizens to change the marriage laws."
