The Obama administration has stopped defending the constitutionality of the federal Defense of Marriage Act because it has determined that the Act violates the federal Constitution.
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker now seeks to stop defending the Wisconsin domestic partnership law because he has determined that it violates the Wisconsin Constitution.
Obviously, there's a big difference. The Obama adminstration's decision supports marriage rights for gay people, and the Walker decision opposes marriage-like rights for gay people.
