When the US Supreme Court ruled the act of sodomy was no longer illegal the next logical step for the sodomites is to say they are being discriminated against because they can’t get “married”. A blind man could have saw this coming. When the government legalizes the perverted, demented, unnatural act of sodomy - and all the deadly diseases that come with it, there is no turning back. Sodom and Gomorrah redux. My prediction is John Roberts will be the deciding vote and say DOMA is unconstitutional, and throwing his Catholic faith right out the window, he will defy 5,000 years of recorded history and say that marriage is nothing more than a contract (a legal piece of paper), and anyone can enter into this contract. I will then go down to the courthouse and demand that I be allowed to marry both my St Bernard dogs so I can claim them as exemptions on my income tax, and depending on how I’m feeling, I might also fill out a marriage application on 50 or so of my chickens. My neighbor Joe wants to marry his two goats.
Take that to the bank.
Oh come on, let's putt it in character: hell say that money to obtain a marriage license is not a fee, but a tax, and therefore falls under the preview of Congress... but rule that DOMA is unconstitutional because it is... erm... uh... Ex Post Facto, yeah that's the ticket, Ex Post Facto. Because it, um, causes the federal government to not recognize marriages that were recognized by the State... and, um, violates the 9th amendment.,, and because it's Ex Post Facto BOTH States and the Federal government are prohibited from passing laws on it... thus he will declare that even in the states which don't recognize it have to because... um, you have to do what the Supreme Court says! Roe v. Wade, the states and their laws are our playthings! *insert maniacal laughter*
