No doubt the Left will inform us that this is because A) Rahm is now in Chicago B) Obama is secretly using this to distract us from his plan to privatize the EPA.

Anyway, I think this qualifies as "Change we can believe in" though no doubt there are a dozen diaries at Kos explaining how this is really a subterfuge and a sell out. I can hardly wait to go over there...
UPDATE: OK, that's weird, they are not talking about "full faith and credit" but rather the status of LGBT people as historically discriminated against. I guess it doesn't really matter, but I thought when they took a stand it would be on the actual Constitution.
