=====================================



Under what delegated power does the U.S. Congress claim they can pass 
such a law?

It sounds like an exercise in futility since there is NO SUCH THING AS 
FEDERAL MARRIAGE.


At best they are States laws because some may say it's a power not 
denied to the States, but that's also NOT clear.

Gays interest in marriage doesn't make it part of the U.S. Constitution.

Marriage is Still a State issue until they find different.  Equality is 
NOT a power delegated to the United States to force on Americans.

---------------------------------------------------------
  *Amendment XIV*
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and 
subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States 
and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any 
law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the 
United States; *nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty* 
, *or property, without due process of law* ; *nor deny to any person* 
*within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws* .
---------------------------------------------------------

  nor deny to any person within *its jurisdiction* the equal protection 
of the laws.



/-> *ADDENDUM*

*THIS CLAUSE SAYS nothing of delegating powers to the United States*

It simply *denies the power* to make unequal laws to the States or for 
the States to enforce any laws on an unequal basis.  It doesn't add any 
new powers to make laws to force PEOPLE to obey.  All it does is deny 
powers to the States.

The entire basis of the equal protection clause has been corrupted by 
Democrats lies.  It is NOT Federal and it is NOT a RIGHT of the people, 
and it never contends that it is a RIGHT of the people. It's a limit on 
the States. The same kind of limit as the 2nd Amendment where it says 
"SHALL NOT INFRINGE" just after it denied that right/power to the States 
in the Second Amendment, by saying it is *THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO 
KEEP* *AND* *BEAR ARMS*  where as the *SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED* is 
clearly limiting any GOVERNMENT laws that would interfere with the free 
exercise of that RIGHT.  The same as the free exercise of religion in 
the first amendment can't be banned with laws because infringing on that 
RIGHT would violate the clause.

*END ADDENDUM* <-/

This refers to the Government denying equal protection and says nothing 
of or about delegating powers for making laws to FORCE WE THE PEOPLE to 
be equal in our private sector lives, it's intended to limit government 
segregation NOT force private sector associations of persons who do NOT 
feel the need to be integrated into private groups and personal circles 
of friendship....

Government is NOT intended to decide those things for me in my private 
life, those things being where I go or who I interact with.  It is NOT 
the government's business and is a violation of the 4th Amendment for 
the Government to presume that it knows where I should travel and who my 
personal relationships should include better than I know who those 
relationships should include.

To my point, I'm NOT interested in visiting or living or hanging out 
with the Martha's Vineyard jet set.... never was never will be.  No 
matter how much money I have or don't have.  No matter what color or 
class or sexual or drug addicted confusion they enjoy, I'm just NOT 
interested in the idea of being there.

And the government has no delegated power to build them houses next to 
me or send them on buses to shop in my local NON GOVERNMENT OWNED store 
or go to my local private schools... I don't need to be integrated with 
the Martha's Vineyard aristocracy. And trying to force it on me is 
violating my RIGHT to choose.

  You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't 
pick your friends nose.
