Well, well...now you are defending something called "The Defense of Marriage Act signed into law by that renown defender of marriage William Jefferson Clinton. A law which clearly violates the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution

If you want to make the argument that the 14th Amendment nullifies Article IV, Section 1, go for it.

Article. IV.

Section. 1.

Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State. And the Congress may by general Laws prescribe the Manner in which such Acts, Records and Proceedings shall be proved, and the Effect thereof.

It's on the basis of this Section of the Constitution that Congress has the power to enact the Defense of Marriage Act. Ask around.

The Democratically-controlled Senate, led by Al Gore, passed a law (signed by Bill Clinton) which nullifies a section of an Amendment to the US Constitution, and you see this as a good thing for the conservative cause?

Tell me, what other good things did the Clintons, the Gores, and the Carvilles do for us while they were in power?
