What I'd challenge in this story is how this is encouraged by the
Obama administration? I mean specifically in this case. Obama was not
president when this judge came into office. From what I gather he was
appointed by Mike Easley.

Here is another link from a local paper:

That story doesn't state anything different, just leaves out the commentary.

I think that divorce is the issue here. People don't seem to
understand that divorce is going to change things. That's true even
if, in the view of evangelicals, the divorce is biblically sound.

The judge has two parents with differing opinions and can't really
throw out the view of one parent because they have admitted to a sin.
I don't think that that is legislating from the bench.

My sister home schools her brood of 5. She works at least part time
and often more, and they all exceed. I worry about my nephews being
socially retarded, though.
