We wondered today what Bob Barr, the newly-minted Libertarian, would have to say about the California marriage decision. Thanks to Citizen Crain, we get to see him at his cheese-paring best:
"Regardless of whether one supports or opposes same sex marriage, the decision to recognize such unions or not ought to be a power each state exercises on its own, rather than imposition of a one-size-fits-all mandate by the federal government (as would be required by a Federal Marriage Amendment which has been previously proposed and considered by the Congress). The decision today by the Supreme Court of California properly reflects this fundamental principle of federalism on which our nation was founded."
