If some states recognized homosexual marriage because the legislature enacted such a law, and if other states had the right not to recognize such marriages, I might not favor a federal amendment banning gay marriage. Unfortunately, the homosexual lobby is happy to use dishonest judges who *invent* a right to gay marriage, pretending that laws against sex discrimination require recognition of homosexual marriage. I support a federal amendment as a way of slapping down the lying judges and their allies.
I feel the same way about abortion. I’m pro-choice in the sense that I would not favor a state law banning all abortions, but I recognize that Roe vs. Wade was a big lie that ought to be overturned.
It goes deeper than that.
Obama is on the record as promising to repeal the 1996 DMA signed by clinton keeping homosexual marriages out of federal law.
In addition he will rescind don’t ask don’t tell.
ALSO consider the administration’s control of immigration rules regarding spousal visas.
We are LONG overdue for a federal marriage amendment.
