Profiles in Logic

According to the President:

Today, 45 of the 50 states have either a state constitutional amendment or statute defining marriage as a union of a man and a woman.

So, why do we need a Constitutional amendment if 90% of the states have already remedied the situation?

Unfortunately, this consensus is being undermined by activist judges and local officials who have struck down state laws protecting marriage and made an aggressive attempt to redefine marriage.

Except only one state, Nebraska, had their marriage amendment overturned, because it would have prohibited every type of same-sex relationship and essentially banned homosexuality in the state, such was its breadth. And that case is not through the courts, it's under appeal. Only one other state, Massachusetts, has adopted same-sex marriage through judicial decision-making.

This, mind you, was his PROOF that we need to write discrimination into the Constitution.

What a load of crap.
