thanks for the response.

I was trying to find a link
to paste...........

A quick google turns up too
many biased articles on both sides of
the issue.

I was just looking for the basic
explanation.

It's a 14th Amendment Equal Protection
issue in the last analysis..............

Well, I can't dig into it now...I'm out the door. But it would seem that the doma laws are what would be in jeopardy and what would be reviewed by the supreme court as being unconstitutional.

makes sense that there would be an attempt to pass an amendment before the doma laws are put to the acid test by the supreme court.
