Fleeting moments of internet interest.

ohmachiolee: Gay activists praised the Obama administration Wednesday after it declared the Defense of Marriage Act, which defines marriage as only between a man and a woman— is unconstitutional. WIN. Not quite right. Obama and the DOJ announced that they believe DOMA to be unconstitutional, but they will continue to enforce it until it’s declared unconstitutional by the Judicial branch. So until that happens, many same-sex couples will be denied federal rights and responsibilities. Still, a definite step in the right direction.
