It's not a lie. They may be limited on who they can marry but that isn't denying them the ability to marry. Nothing is absolute. I'm denied the ability to open carry a gun. That doesn't take away my right to own one just limits where and how I can carry it. Learn the difference unless you want to claim marriage as an absolute right. I find that with people like you it's OK to limit things you think should be limited yet if it's something you support, it should be unlimited. If you think marriage is a right and people should be able to marry whomever they want, do you agree that brothers and sisters should be able to marry?
Well the point of this thread is more about how the lower federal circuits violated procedure and therefore their decisions aren't worth the paper they're written on.
Gay marriage in states that forbade it is still forbidden. I have as much authority to overrule SCOTUS from underneath as those circuit judges do. In other words since Baker and Windsor upheld states' choice on gay marriage, SCOTUS has not overturned itself..those decisions are still the law.
