To repeal DOMA activists will either need a majority in congress that support repeal (as well as a majority of the population so that congresspersons don't shy away from making the right choice), or be challenged in court. A law like DOMA will be appealed all the way to the supreme court. Do you see where I'm going with this?

DOMA will be brought to the Supreme court, of which Scalia is a member...

I think there's one. That's probably reality's liberal bias.

Regardless, unless you think that DOMA is going to overturn Loving v's Virginia, I'm really not sure why anyone should care about his (claimed) opinion.

You fantasize about sticking a flaming torch up the asses of several gay guys? That sounds kinda... Gay perhaps?

Still don't. It doesn't make Scalia's personal opinions of any value. Without the DOJ to back DOMA when it gets to the supreme court, it'll be very interesting. In fact, at this point it seems more just a matter of time for its repeal rather then if it can be. However, Scalia will still need to find legal reasoning as to why he's in support of DOMA... those are rather hard to find.

All this conservative supreme court needs to do is rule in favor of DOMA and Loving v Virginia is meaningless, at least in the context of gay marriage. The fact that you have no concern about the consequences of DOMA reaching the high court worries me.

The DOJ has already been replaced by a house appointed representative, and considering Scalias opinion on how the supreme court SHOULD interpret the constitution and his negative opinion on homosexuality in every instance that it has been brought to his attention; I"m inclined to believe he has all the reason he needs to rule in favor.

Nova Nacio supports gay marraige, as well as inter-racial marriage, need we go that far.

Why can't the rest of the US see they're hurting their citizens who decide on this. It is, after all, their decision to be what the want.

I say let them be and stop acting like God's policemen, is what I say to those who think otherwise.

those who continue to disagree and act like they have to enforce a slowly-deficient and now-dying word bearing no semblance of law nor order is going get outlawed, or worse, hurt for it someday if you don't come to grips with this cold hard truth.
