True. But they if pursue it, the US Supreme Court might not rule their way and set back the same marriage crusade for a generation. I think bringing up federal constitutional arguments might ending up backfiring on the gay rights crowd. There's a reason they pursued only state and not federal issues related to Proposition 8.

You know how cabalistic the homosexual movement is. They rely on closeted allies, secrets, and secret favors, on both offense and defense.

Evan Wolfson and his allies wouldn't be dragging this stuff up to the Supreme Court every ten minutes if he didn't think he had a secret vote advantage, as well as an Article IV argument (Full Faith and Credit Clause), which thanks to New England's moral Iscariots, he now has.

Come to think of it, though, with Souter leaving, his secret advantage might be leaving, too.

With those New England legislative votes in favor of queer hookups being called "marriage", the gay bar has everything they need for the showdown. It's all about timing, now, and the multiple appeals of appeals the gay attorneys have been aiming straight at SCOTUS ever since Mary Bonauto and Lambda Legal rolled the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court.
