You can use similiar language to invalidate Federal and State DOMA's. They too are facially discriminatory. It won't be long before the SCOTUS apes Canada by declaring laws confining marriage to a man and a woman ipso facto, violate the 14th Amendment. This is just the foot in the door the heterophobes have been waiting for. Don't think the implications of today's ruling sanctioning gay sex in one's bedroom are not confined to the larger issues at stake. Justice Breyer's decision can and will be used as a battering ram against the remaining vestiges of traditional morality on the grounds its demeans some minority group. After for liberals, its all about feelings, not the rule of law and if y'all liked Monday's SCOTUS decision sanctioning soft bigotry, you'll love it when one day the Court decides marriage no longer means what it now means.

Justice Scalia's dissent is brilliant. He exposes to clear view the hypocrisy and inconsistency of the majority.

Interestingly, he says the majority did not rely on Griswold's privacy right; he says they decided that no legitimate state interest was shown.
