"A federal appeals court on Thursday struck down the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), a federal law that defines marriage as being between a man and a woman.
In the ruling, the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston said the law discriminates against gay couples and is unconstitutional."

Once again thats exactly what I said would/should happen. The gay marriage issue is a legal issue, not a public perception one, so the issue needs fought in the court, not in politics.

Why do you feel there should be a fight against DOMA? DOMA shouldn't exist.
