“DOMA ensures federal benefits won’t be used to “undermine traditional marriage”

Eight years later, GOP asked the Congressional Budget Office if the government lost or gain money by barring same-sex marriage in all states. The answer?

CBO Publication 15740, June 21, 2004, page 1, paragraph 2: About $1 billion (B) a year is LOST by government because of DOMA.

That’s $17 billion (B) to 2013, and counting.

The only thing DOMA “ensured” were some GOP election wins. That’s not happening anymore – the “issue” can’t be used to get elected or re-elected. It sure does continue to cost the government money. But, that’s what the GOP is all about.

“The brief also disputes the notion that Congress passed DOMA in 1996 out of animus”

Just read the Congressional Record of the hearings and the vote. The comments are full of animus, hatred, bigotry.

"DOMA ensures federal benefits won’t be used to “undermine traditional marriage” at the state level"…………………ummmm I guess this has never ever happened before Lesbians and Gays wanted to get marry………………………..I hate to see what they're going to go when our marriages are finally recognized at the federal level.

Either something is constitutional or it isn't. Giving excuses as lame as giving federal benefits to gay couples will encourage states to legalize marriage equality so you have to say DOMA is constitutional is outrageous!

You're banking on homophobia and a visceral reaction on the part of the court to influence a ruling instead of anything that really is based on the constitution.

Even Scalia commented that if the court struck down sodomy laws as unconstituional there would be no rational basis for denying gay couples marriage. Now he'll likely pull something out of his ass to justify DOMA.
