1. I don't disagree, but why post this 11 years after the bill was signed? |

We all knew how awful it was more than a decade ago. I don't see anyone in congress now trying to repeal it, do you? There are 536 people to blame for DOMA, not just Bill Clinton.
Other people deserving blame include Senators Biden, Dodd, Leahy, Reid, Murray, Daschle, and Levin, Dick Gephardt, Steny Hoyer, John Murtha, and Chuck Schumer, who all voted yes on the bill.
