the right thing to do is often unpopular
Indeed, but it would help if everyone on our side pulled together.
Instead, we’ll get the national bill and then folks like cripplecreek will probably cheer Obama on so that it gets passed.
It was never about states rights, always about kneecapping social conservatives. Any social conservative worth his salt understands why DOMA was there - to attempt to protect the union.
But, I guess we don’t have a union. Then we get the enablers whining about secession. Because if they can’t force us into gay marriage - they are willing to use force of arms to weld the states together.
Like I said, States’ rights is really a smokescreen.
