High court to hear gay marriage cases in April Associated Press
WASHINGTON (January 16, 2015) — Setting the stage for a potentially historic ruling, the Supreme Court announced Friday it will decide whether same-sex couples have a right to marry everywhere in America under the Constitution.
The justices will take up gay-rights cases that ask them to overturn bans in four states and declare for the entire nation that people can marry the partners of their choice, regardless of gender. The cases will be argued in April, and a decision is expected by late June.
Proponents of same-sex marriage said they expect the court to settle the matter once and for all with a decision that invalidates state provisions that define marriage as between a man and a woman.
Attorney General Eric Holder said the Obama administration would urge the court "to make marriage equality a reality for all Americans."

I thought he resigned. WTF is he doing hanging around?
WTF is Slick Willie doing hanging around?
He crashes the party. Holder is on the guest list. Me no get.
Okay
He’s staying on until his replacement is confirmed by the Senate which will probably happen in February. Don’t get excited though. His designated replacment wont be any better.
He’s pulling a Sandra Day O’Connor, and staying on the job until the Senate confirms a replacement. IOW, the resignation is contingent on a replacement being named.
This must mean the blackmail of Judge Roberts has woked perfectly, just like with Odammitcare.
I once thought this might be the catalyst that led some states to secede, turning gay marriage into Roe v Wade II but the appeals courts have largely done that already.
Eric H0lder, Federal Dick, .......
Doesn’t matter, really, in that anyone replacing Holder as Obama’s AG, would say the same thing.
Holder HAS resigned. But the effective date was left hanging, on purpose. He’s hanging around waiting for his successor to be confirmed. But he doesn’t have to do that, there could be an acting AG in the meantime, but Holder likes to stick in the knife and twist it until he leaves.
If there was an acting AG and Holder was actually out the door, he wouldn’t have so much fun every day...
FERAL
She may even be worse...
NOT the democracy and I don'y CARE if it's 46 to 4 ...
I can see the penumbras all the way from here.
I'm thinking that only a full-scale confiscation attempt on our guns would be the catalyst for secession. But now I'm not even sure about that.
The pic on Drudge says it all
And even then they'll find some new way to destroy America.
What ever happened to the words “ONE NATION UNDER GOD?”
Think GOD would approve of Gay marriages?
It’s time for this fleabag to re-resign. He was supposed to be long gone a long time ago. What’s the hold up? His bull**** is getting old.
Roe vs Wade all over again - “WE THE PEOPLE” have not approved - and in fact disapprove - gay marriage. Rule on this in favor of, and society as we know it is OVER.
