Since when does the executive branch decide the constitutionality of laws?
Only when they cannot pass laws that meet their personal beliefs.
The Executive branch doesn't pass laws, the Legislative branch does that (US Congress).
The Executive branch enforces the laws (Dept. of Justice/President) be it in a criminal case or in a lawsuit in federal court. In this case, the Executive Branch, including the President, felt that after two cases both having found DOMA to be unconstitutional President Obama (also a Constitutional lawyer) decided it's not necessary to enforce Section 3 of DOMA.
Personally, I feel that none of DOMA is necessary or constitutional. I don't feel its necessary for the laws of this country to be discriminatory.
Hilarious. So conservatives say it's unconstitutional to force everyone to carry health coverage, despite knowing that caring for the uninsured drives up all of our costs. But "man we better make sure those gays don't get hitched." Because you know if we see two gay dudes getting married, it might start turning EVERYONE gay.
Childish analogy.
