Obama must be suffering in the polls way worse than the corrupt media is leading us to believe....to pull this stunt at this time.

Here’s some further info—

You might note in future posts that the AG’s DOMA decision applies only to DOMA sec. 3, which sets a federal definition of marriage. That’s the part that overrode state primacy in family issues like marriage. DOMA sec. 2, which holds that states do not have to give full faith and credit to same-sex marriages from other states, is not at issue in any federal litigation and is not disturbed by the AG’s 530D notice

Purportedly. But this is Leftist Incrementalism 101 - slowly wedge in the poisonous pill.

This will effectively make homo-"marriage" portable, as homo couples now travel to other states and act like they are married, with the federal government's blessing. And don't forget that the states receive plenty of funds from the fed with massive strings attached. Don't believe for one minute that continuance of these funds - medicaid, housing, highways, etc. - will not be contingent on states refusing to recognize what the federal government will now call "marriage." If the government is now mandating that hospitals and other health care providers accepting medicare MUST recognize partners of sodomites, how on earth is it not conceivable that this move will be used as a sledge hammer to force states to recognize fake marriages?
