Disappointing disconnect

Sure, but despite atticus's strict constructionism, interpreting the constitution has not been uniformly conducted in Scalia's Chevron-type Stage I, Stage II analysis. If a party marshalls uniform evidence of what an amendment was purportedly designed to accomplish, and it's spelled out in tabular form at the Alliance for Marriage's website, and, if Allard is an indicium of what R's mean, there are enough wacko judges on the 9th circuit to limit the interpretation to allow for the enforcement of legislatively initiated and passed laws providing for civil unions.

There are wacko judges on other circuits. Including the Eleventh Circuit, thanks to W.
If that was Allard's intent, it could have been translated into language more effectively.
