a right under the US Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land. The Iowa Constitution can't trump that.

There are many insidious motives attendant with such posturing and "flouting" of law. To name a few:

1) Throw red meat to the evangelical and social conservative base and solidify GOP standing with them.
2) Activate and motivate RW voters to turnout (as if sharks in the water feeding on red meat).
3) Force AG Miller to refuse to defend such an amendment, if passed, when it is challenged in court--which it most certainly would be.
4) Create a public "forum" in which to incite harassment and persecution, both verbal and otherwise, of our LGTBQ friends in Iowa.

And we would be well advised to remember that so-called "supreme" law is inherently and perpetually unsettled, and that any SCOTUS ruling is tenuous, at best, and can be overturned on principle. This is especially the case with recent, less-institutionalized precedent. The equal protection principle is ever-evolving (or DEVOLVING under conservative rulings).

The 1850s, that is.

If Kimmie and the rest of them get that particular wet dream then that constitutional amendment would come in to force.

Kimmie needs to be opposed at every turn from now until November. I hope Hubble plans on being a hard, pipe hitting sort of opponent here.
