Actually, I don't disagree with your position. I think its outrageous that unelected judges in MA can make a law for that state, and even worse if its forced to stand throughout the whole country. That's why I'm not opposed to a Defense of Marriage amendment; I wouldn't necessarily like it in a purist's sense, but reality dictates why its being discussed. What we need to do, but it won't happen, is to impeach the judges and make sure others like them don't get appointed to the bench. As long as there are idiots like Dem'Rats we'll have activist judges!
The point of my earlier reply is that both V.P. and Mrs. Cheney have a valid point.
