Judge Sotomayor made the point that a law based on morality would be unconstitutional.

Such an absurdity can be uttered only because America has rejected morality.

No amendment to the Constitution can restore this country to morality, nor can our immorality be blamed on the lack of one. To quote John Adams:

"This Constitution was made for a moral and religious people. It is inadequate for the governing of any other."

First you become a moral and religious people. Then you get good governance. (The converse is also true.)

That you for appropriate quote "To quote John Adams: "This Constitution was made for a moral and religious people. It is inadequate for the governing of any other."

I do think we have that kind of people. However we have a growing number of people who wish to provide exceptions for immorality. These people find the Adams' limitation as useful to their challenge. If laws like DOMA can be overturned by the Constitution, then the Constitution should be amended.
