This is a no brainer. There's nothing in the US Constitution to prohibit or ban gay marriage. Why else do you think that the right wing is so hot to pass a Marriage Amendment? Because they know it to be true....and now the right wing justices are trying to rationalize some way to make it illegal without legislating from the bench. Stay tuned.
Rudy – that's why they haven't taken any action – they are trying to figure out how to "rationalize" a way. lol – – They won't have to worry about it within the next 4 yrs – Obama will make sure it (the S C ) will "finally" get tilted, since it's been "tilted" the other way, for so many years.
