Orin Kerr raises an interesting point:
If the Obama Administration won’t defend the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, what are the chances that a future Republican administration would defend the constitutionality of the individual mandate? To my mind, this adds a very interesting wrinkle to the individual mandate litigation (and, more broadly, to the role of the Executive Branch in defending statutes in the future).

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

I would guess that Mr. Klein would support President Obama's decision.

Excellent point by Orin Kerr. Thanks for pointing it out.

Why is homosexuality more disgusting than heterosexuality? it is much the same-- boring and tasteless, just like 'culture' as a whole. We are drowning in mediocrity-- so the heterosexual versus homosexual marriage Culture War is nothing but Bread and Circus.

Kerr does raise an interesting point. So, is Justice only going to defend those laws they like on a partisan basis? If that's the case, we have no laws.

Maybe this is why the Democrats never intend to give up power.
