federal statute that restricted rights of individuals who wish to get married to the same person was demeaning and disrespected their relationship. it took away their constitutional rights. if you read what the supreme court said in that case there is really no other way for the supreme court to come out in the case that's up for argument on tuesday. the first part of that case is whether states have to recognize the rights of individuals who wish to get married in that stays. i think that will end the debate there. >> it does seem obvious you can see the federal government saying you've got to recognize this is the way it works. you don't think they'll draw a states line here? >> no, i don't. because what the supreme court said in the federal case, they were talking not so much they mention states rights, but they were talking about the impact on the individuals in a relationship and the children of those relationship how it took away their rights. it made their relationships less equal, second class. those sorts of things.
