“That the Supreme Court found some governmental action to be unconstitutional is not the same thing as saying that someone is guilty of a crime. Or do you think that every member of Congress who voted for the Defense of Marriage Act belongs in prison?”

I never said he committed a crime. I said he broke the law. To be more specific Constitutional law, which is the body of law which defines the relationship of different entities within a state, namely, the executive, the legislature, and the judiciary. This has nothing to do with criminal law.

Then why did you say he should be sentenced to federal prison?
