No I am not. The 3 branches of the Federal Government are each responsible for obstruction unauthorized acts of the others.
In pretty much every area to remove a law is to grant greater not less freedom. This DOMA is no exception.
The States cannot be made to reconize the abominations created in other States. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_Faith_and_Credit_Clause#Application_to_family_law
At most the Feds will be forced to heed the State’s definition of marriage.
The trade off the federal governments own internal definition of marriage could be made meaningless by a subsequent strict textual constitutionality president. Who would uses the same power to basically shut down 80% of the Federal government, on the grounds that it is also not authorized in the Constitution.
Due to the size of the lawless Federal bureaucracy it would be practicably nearly imposable for subsequent presidents to fully reconstitute it before the next one. But even if they did they would open to re-consistering the extent of the same particular as the people realize just how little they actually need the Federal Governments teneticals.
Simply put if I became president I would uses my power to shut down most all of the Federal government by declaring such sectors to be unconstitutional and using that declaration to fire all their employees.
I would probably also deconstruct the Federal Military cause if I was elected a lot of States would have a like-minded sentiment and thus be eager to get out of this repressive union while they can.
