Brody's Scribbles... DOMA For Dummies

By Matt Baume (San Francisco, California) FEB 28 | Can you even believe this week?
President Obama ordered an end to the defense of the Defense of Marriage Act, which is huge. We'll check in with Marriage Equality USA's Molly McKay and Immigration Equality's Lavi Solloway about what this unexpected twist means, as well as Dianne Feinstein's surprise announcement about DOMA's repeal.
And the surprises don't stop there. Ted Olson has asked the California Supreme Court to not only expedite oral arguments against Prop Eight, but to also allow gay couples to resume marrying now.
And we all thought Imperial County was out of the picture for good, but a new foe popped up this week at the very last minute.
