Via JMG: RBG Emphasizes The Word "Constitution" As She Officiates Third Gay Wedding
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg coyly poked the haters this
weekend as she officiated her third same-sex wedding. Via the New York Times:
Reposted from Joe Jervis
Wearing her black robe with her signature white lace collar, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg presided over the marriage on Sunday afternoon of Michael Kahn, the longtime artistic director of the Shakespeare Theater Company in Washington, and Charles Mitchem, who works at an architecture firm in New York.I guess it's too late for the wingnuts to demand that she double-extra recuse. (Tipped by JMG reader Ed)
The gilded setting was elegant: Anderson House in the Embassy Row neighborhood, the headquarters in Washington of the Society of the Cincinnati, a club for the descendants of the French and American soldiers who fought in the Revolutionary War. During the ceremony, the couple slipped black and gold Harry Winston rings onto each other’s fingers.
But the most glittering moment for the crowd came during the ceremony. With a sly look and special emphasis on the word “Constitution,” Justice Ginsburg said that she was pronouncing the two men married by the powers vested in her by the Constitution of the United States. No one was sure if she was emphasizing her own beliefs or giving a hint to the outcome of the case the Supreme Court is considering whether to decide if same-sex marriage is constitutional. But the guests began applauding loudly, delighted either way.

“O vitimismo é extremamente pernicioso. A pessoa que atua nessa máscara
acredita ser muito pura. Ela não entende porque Deus é tão maldoso com
ela. A vítima tenta dominar o outro através da ideia de que ela não dá
conta da vida, de que é impotente e frágil. Mas, o que ela quer é
manipular o outro: “Ou você faz do meu jeito ou eu me mato, tomo veneno,
pulo a janela”. E às vezes ela até faz isso mesmo. Mas, entenda que essa
é uma estratégia, uma forma de manipulação. A vítima se arrasta no
chão, arranca os cabelos, mas esse teatro é com a intenção de dominar o
outro.”

“El victimismo es extremadamente pernicioso. La persona que actúa en
esta máscara cree que es muy pura. No entiende por qué Dios es tan malo
con ella. La víctima intenta dominar al otro a través de la idea de que
ella no da abasto con la vida, de que es impotente y frágil. Pero lo que
ella quiere es manipular al otro: "O lo haces a mi manera o me mato,
tomo veneno, salto por la ventana." Y a veces incluso hasta lo hace.
Pero entienda que ésta es una estrategia, una forma de manipulación. La
víctima se arrastra en el piso, se arranca los pelos, pero este teatro
es con la intención de dominar al otro”.
“Victimhood is extremely harmful. A person who wears this mask believes that they are pure, and they do not understand why ‘God’ is treating them so badly. The victim attempts to dominate others with the idea that they cannot cope with life, that they are powerless and weak. What they really want is to manipulate the other person. Basically they’re saying, ‘Do things my way, or I’ll kill myself! I’ll drink poison or jump out the window, and then you’ll see.’ Some people actually do it! Others just thrash about on the floor and tear out their hair, putting on the most manipulative dramas so as to finally have power over the other person.”
