Uh, really? Get off it. You know what I meant. Uh, no, I didn't; I knew what you wrote and responded with a correction to multiple errors in fact.
If DOMA had Constitutional problems it would have been challenged.
Agreed, but that has nothing whatever to do with what I posted which was to correct the record for those who don't know what happened with Proposition 22.

4th step was to get the Supreme Court, at a minimum, to allow the 18,000 marriages to be recognized, despite the Prop 8 definition of marriage. The SOCAL ruled (correctly) that, in the absence of explicit retroactive language, the existing marriages could not be interefered with. If the proposition was supposed to do that, it needed to be expressly written into the language.
