What form of communism is it to allow voters in states to set standards for their state?Just the right trying to practice their form of Communism, again.If the rest of the unconstitutional DOMA were struck down, that'd be fine by me. If a state does not wish to perform a same sex marriage, fine...but a same sex marriage license issued by another state must be recognized in all 50 states.
DOMA was unconstitutional, and a showcase for family values groups asserting their agenda over the U.S. Constitution just like any Leftist group. It's a badge of shame on my side.
It was clearly Constitutional by the full faith and credit clause. Being "Unconstitutional" is not an emotional argument, it is a legal one. You are perfectly free to be embarrassed by it. But it was clearly Constitutional.
Yes it is a legal argument, successfully so since the Supreme Court gutted it. There is nothing in the Constitution that gives the federal government power over marriage. Here I thought you were a libertarian, but now I'm beginning to think you're a Focus On The Family statist.
We were talking about DOMA, which actually inserts the federal government illegally into the issue of marriage just like the Morril Anti Bigamy Act of 1862. This is the problem, the federal government assuming for itself power the Constitution never grants it.
