That in and of itself may be unconstitutional, but it is another obstacle.

We've covered this here already, the DOMA is a paper tiger. It is only effective as long as it isn't actually being used. Once a state uses it, a case can be brought to the Supreme Court and there is a 0.000000% chance that it will hold up.
DOMA is a simple law, Full Faith and Credit is part of the Constitution. Any simple law is the FFCC's bitch.
