Hey, I am all for states rights. I think it should be up to the States, but the fact is, we ALL KNOW what would happen then. On the other hand, I am uncomfortable with amending the Constitution for such a thing. G*D D*MN courts force ones hand however..

I'm in favor of amending the composition of the US Supreme Court, not the US Constitution. I would fire a few justices who are out of control.

If Republicans don't have the sack to clean up the SCOTUS, they will never have the spine to pass any amendment. That's my humble prediction.

There is no point in amending something that is utterly ignored in the first place.

If anyone had the guts to impeach the activist judges and vacate their unconstitutional travesties, that would be enough.

If it is left up to the states, then it is up to the states to honor other states' marriages or not. The problem is the Constitution,. for good reasons, requires all states to honor each other's contracts. So it is not up to the individual states.

OK, for all of you out there who feel that discussion and a possible constitutional amendment is some how in opposition to states rights, please let me know how?

In the end, the states DO decide with a constitutional amendment. It MUST be ratified by the several states in order for it to become a part of the constitution.I simply hate the fact that education of how our government works is so poor that even the VP's wife doesn't understand the process.
