Obama administration urges justices to overturn anti-gay marriage law
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Obama administration outlined its argument on Friday why the U.S. Supreme Court should strike down a federal law that defines marriage as between a man and woman.
Solicitor General Donald Verrilli filed a brief with the court saying that section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act was unconstitutional, expanding on the administration's approach to the controversial 1996 law, which it has formally opposed since February 2011.
Section 3 defines marriage under federal law as being between a man and a woman.
The law denies federal benefits to same-sex married couples that are granted to married heterosexuals.
The administration's position is that the law violates the guarantee of equal protection under the law.
The MSM will not touch this one.

Impeachment proceedings are brought up in the House, but there is no way the Senate would take it up.

And upholding the Constitution of the United States, which he ignores at will.
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

Article II, Section 3 of the US Constitution: "(The President) shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed".
Not that the Constitution means anything to Preezy O'Choom.
