Most Promising DOMA Lawsuit

Here's an article from law.com explaining why among all the DOMA lawsuits, the one filed by GLAD is considered the most hopeful in winning the argument against DOMA in front of the Supreme Court.

While GLAD might not have as high a profile as, say, Ted Olson, they were the ones that brought us gay marriage in Massachussetts. This lawsuit is evidence that GLAD is the expert in picking the right battles.

Do keep in mind though, that GLAD does not expect the lawsuit to reach the Supreme Court until 2013 at the earliest. That's a good four years from now. I certainly hope we'd have a legislative solution to DOMA by then.

One can only hope.
