Whose Morality?

Writing about Chief Justice John Roberts’ legal contortions to reach his Obamacare decision, Cal Thomas makes excellent points:

 

This is the “Oprahfication” of America in which feelings trump truth and personal experience and class guilt rule, not the Constitution. Oprah Winfrey, who endorsed Obama in 2008, might head a new cabinet department should Obama win a second term: the Department of Feelings.

The Supreme Court didn’t worry about morality and which side of history it was on when it decided to make prayer and Bible reading illegal in public schools a half-century ago — and what about the “morality” of ripping constitutional protection from unborn babies? Whose moral code decided that case?
