SO out of curiosity are you suggesting that the states can do whatever they want whenever they want? Is it okay if the states decide that DOMA is incorrect and so they will pass same sex (or any other version of aberration) marriage and have no interference from the federal government?

Since I am not on SCOTUS and I never will be my opinion is of little value to anyone. I do read those who are better educated on these things than I am (such as Mark Levin and Anton Scalia and others). Even they admit to limitations to the Constitution. It is our best hope for freedom no doubt. But it is not the word of God. It was written by men and serves us well. I am an originalist. Not agreeing with you or Jim Robinson on this issue does not worry me. Since we probably agree on so much more than this.

I'm saying the Tenth Amendment means what it says. If you had read it, you'd know it does not say the states can do whatever they want whenever they want.

I don't even know what that's supposed to mean - and I'll bet neither Levin nor Scalia has ever used those words.

An "originalist" who thinks consistent adherence to the Tenth Amendment is extreme ranting and raving?
