@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 @journosnow In any event, I still have no idea what point you're trying to prove. And, I have to be up soon enough. So ... yeah ...

@chrisgeidner@journosnow point is that I think ppl should file amici briefs only if clear on their legal argument. Harder on 8 than DOMA -
@pgofhsm@journosnow You, like, stated a truism there not an argument. Obviously federal interest in fed law is more clear/direct. -
@chrisgeidner@journosnow I stated badly if that's what you thought I meant by that. What I meant is that 8 has muddier history in lower cts -
@pgofhsm@journosnow Well, DOJ defended DOMA at first. So, there's that "muddy" history there. -
@chrisgeidner@journosnow sure but to my knowledge district & circuit had similar constl bases for decisions in Windsor. District saying...
