No. Scalia had a scathing dissent.

Both Roberts and Scalia dissented in the DOMA case. Then both Roberts and Scalia voted for the majority opinion in the Prop 8 case. They voted the same in both cases. If someone states that Roberts has gone full blown lib because of these two cases, then Scalia apparently has, too.

Scalia sided with the anti-Prop 8 supporters along with Roberts. Scalia and Roberts sided with DOMA but Kennedy switched because he did not want to look like a hypocrite in his “States” right argument (Concerning DOMA) that made no sense at all from a Constitutional standpoint (Equality concerning States that approve homosexual marriage, but ignores States that do not for some unknown reason).
Also ignores a bunch of other Fed/tax laws that defines marriage (There goes your "protect the Constitution" you closet pro-homosexual rights libertarians). Somehow those are allowed to stay, while the “goodies” are distributed.
