DOMA is an embasrassment to the nation. Its repeal is long overdue
Are you saying the people shouldn't have a right to define what marriage is?
What if Utah decided to legalize Polygamy? Should all the other 49 states recognize that?
What if Kentucky allowed 13 years olds to get married or people to marry their siblings?
And what if the sky were falling, then we would simply HAVE to discriminate gays?
Conservatives (and there are so few of them left) should oppose DOMA as well. Marriage is a state matter. If you file suit in a Federal court for recognition of marriage, it will be thrown out, because States have exclusive jurisdiction over family law. DOMA is the most clearly unconstitutional law Congress has passed in the last 20 years.
But hey, lets just toss out some regional stereotypes to justify DOMA. The sky is falling!!!
