The federal government will recognize marriages performed in Utah after a judge struck down the states same-sex marriage ban, Attorney General Holder said Friday, noting that the newly-wedded gay couples should not be asked to endure uncertainty regarding their status as the legal challenges unfold.

should not be asked to endure uncertainty regarding their status There should have been no marriage licenses granted until the legal process was complete - to the highest court available.

I guess to the Attorney Corporal those perverts qualify as “our people”.

A non-thing, yes? IIRC, even 2A hasn’t been ruled “distributed” yet.
Until the SCOTUS provides the proper ruling, this means nothing. Unless, of course, someone believes that the federal government is the Ober-government than can run the States they way they see fit?
Bueller?

This is the fascism that Obama and the left absolutely love. It matters not what the consent of the governed say, it is what WE say that only matters.

Like Rush just said - this is Stalinist.
The “law” is whatever Obama and his MarxoFascist Regime says it is.
They will ignore laws, court rulings, state legislatures, state governors and the sovereign citizens of any state to impose it’s will.
Sadly, Americans are comfortable with tyrannical Fascism and we have been conquered from within.
The photos of gun owners in CT lining up to register their guns told the tale.

OK, so you recognize as you please, Mr. Head of Just-is department!
Well we the people do not recognize a “president” who fails to meet our constitutions’ requirement for office.

This doesn't even make sense. How can fedgov recognize what doesn't exist? There is no federal homosexual marriage law. What does this mean as far as taxes and benefits...and if the law is permanently struck down, what then?
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise. Thanks.

They are not marriages whether or not the feral government recognizes them.
To: ColdOne
States that make marijuana legal do so in violation of fedgov law. No consequences.
States that make homo marriage illegal do so based on their own sovereignty since they issue the marriage licenses. The fedgov steps in and says they can’t do that.
A revolt is needed.
