Geeze.McCain would have a better chance of being on the correct side of an issue by just flipping a coin before each vote.

I'm beginning to think that he does this on purpose. Or that the North Vietnamese were successful with him back in the 60's.

McCain's reasoning sure is muddled. And his stance on immigration issues is even crazier. He and Kennedy act as if they are senile or in a frenzy to harm this country.

---"If," McCain said, "the Supreme Court of the United States rejects the Defense of Marriage Act as unconstitutional; if state legislatures are frustrated by the decisions of jurists in more states than one, and if state remedies to such judicial activism fail; and finally, if a large majority of Americans come to perceive that their communities'values are being ignored and other standards concerning marriage are being imposed on them against their will, and that elections and state legislatures can provide no remedy, then, and only then, should we consider, quite appropriately, amending the Constitution of the United States."---


Well I guess MA (the "jurists in more states than one," If you don't count VT) don't matter to Mr. McCain. Nor do the legislative imposition of same in CT, matter, or the citizens who have been forced to accept this atrocity.

Not to McCain, it is already more than one, and one is one too many. In addition, other states have had their amendments declared unconstitutional. A Federal Amendment DOES give the authority back to the states where it belongs. Back to the citizens, in the process of a vote, and prevents the judges from overturning or ignoring those votes once a measure passes! Their communities values HAVE been ignored!
