65. Sorry but that argument doesn't quite work.
The process for terminating the legal contract between the two parties may vary but the benefits and recognition bestowed on the parties involved is EQUAL no matter if you've been married 24 hours or 24 years.

"A different issue, and I agree with you here, but it's pretty weak of you to prove one thing is wrong because something else is wrong."

No, it isn't a different situation. The reason they can't take my child from me is because my marriage and familial arrangements are legally recognized in all 50 states and by the Federal Government. The reason they can take the homosexual couples child is because their union and familial arrangements are not legally recognized in that State. Hence my objection to leaving the issue up to the States. Obviously the article of the Constitution YOU laid out is selectively if ever enforced.
