Congressman Billybob:
First, why does a decision by a Massachusetts court present a national problem?
That's due to the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the US Constitution, which requires all states to recognize the official acts of other states. And a marriage certificate from one state is clearly represents an official act, when that couple travels to another state.

Actually it was a rhetorical question. Our “esteemed” news media believes in gay marriage, but does not believe in personal self defense. “Our” elected representatives pander to the media.
