i have never understood how anyone thinks a statute like doma can trump the full faith and credit clause of the constitution - i think it was known by all that it would fall when it reached the scotus - doma was a fake that let both clinton and the gop off the hook on an uncomfortable issue

and of course obama directed the doj to not even TRY to defend it

newt is about as faithful to his principles as he is to he wives

RE :”i have never understood how anyone thinks a statute like doma can trump the full faith and credit clause of the constitution -”

Really?? Is my GA gun permit honored in NYC?
No, not even a NYS gun permit is honored in NYC, it never was. I know this personally. I cant even buy guns in another state.

DOMA was a great law that gave each state rights to enforce their own laws.

‘Full Faith and Credit” my a... You go into a state you follow its laws.

The fools were the ones trying to ban all SS marriage at the Federal level, that is unconstitutional and was never going anywhere.
