      Is the idea now w/ Amicus briefs to dump them on SCOTUS just to show which side you support, not to aid decision? @chrisgeidner @journosnow

      @chrisgeidner @journosnow ? Congressional Ds may have something useful to add re DOMA -- many voted on it in 1996. What to say re Prop 8?

      @pgofhsm @chrisgeidner It'd be a different story if two Republicans hadn't declared a constitutional right to marry. That changes things

      @journosnow @chrisgeidner full list of Lawrence amici at http://supreme.lp.findlaw.com/supreme_court/docket/2002/march.html … nothing from Dems qua Dems (sorry Coalition not Council)

      @pgofhsm @journosnow And, of course, it was about a criminal law, not marriage. I'm not sure how this is relevant at all.

      @chrisgeidner @journosnow relevance I see is whether having some Rs file a brief supporting LGBT rights = Ds automatically should do same

      @pgofhsm @journosnow I don't think they should for that reason. As I said, I think Jud Comte Dems cld lead a powerful brief.

      @chrisgeidner @pgofhsm Similar problem Obama admin is also facing -- they come out swinging at DOMA but silent on other key case

      @journosnow @chrisgeidner ...the most expansive possible resolution to Prop 8 (SSM is constl right in every state; states don't decide)

      @pgofhsm @journosnow But, PG, that ISN'T the White House arg on #DOMA. Not by a mile. They barely touch federalism in their brief.

          @chrisgeidner @journosnow they refer over and over to couples who are married under state law

          @pgofhsm @journosnow Right ... because that's how benefits had been determined before DOMA and would be after. O/B wouldn't say otherwise.

          @chrisgeidner @journosnow so O/B don't think civil union & DP couples should have fed recognition of their legal commitments?

          @pgofhsm @journosnow Well, they think those are unconstitutional and should be marriages. So, they don't answer that question.
