"Then what did the Mass. Supreme Court rule on?"
The Massachusetts Constitution. And nothing else.

The funny thing is they read a right into the Mass Constitution that doesn't exist there. Hence the problem with an activist judiciary. They go to lengths previous generations of people never conceived of and the state of the world is turned on its head.

Are you serious? What they ruled on was in direct defiance of the Defense of Marriage Amendment. They specifically stated that the Mass law did not state that marriage was between a man and a woman and unconstitutional. Oh and did you not hear the openly Lesbian judge state that the ruling was to knock down the Defense of Marriage Amendment? A small oversight on your part I am sure. Glad to correct it.
