Ironically, it is just at this point of courts dictating marriage redefinition that our liberaltarian superiors said that we should then begin enacting a federal marriage amendment, but no sooner.
Were they lying to us?
Yes I think they were lying to us about marriage.
I remember those discussions, in which the politicians said that there was no need for a marriage amendment, because no states or few states had homosexual marriage years ago, and that there was no legal threat to the Defense of Marriage Act. Based on that reasoning, there was no need to proceed with a marriage amendment, so they said.
I have heard zero about trying for an amendment since last year’s Supreme Court decisions proved that it’s a strong likelihood that another Supreme Court case will impose 50 state homosexual marriage.
