The Constitution is not a declaration of rights, it is a limitation of rights. Gay marriage is not a right limited in the Constitution.
Additionally, gay marriage is not presently illegal on the Federal level. It is currently a right for which the limitations are to be assigned by the States. Many States are attempting to illegalize it, some are attempting to legalize it and the Federal gov't is attempting to change it's current policy to illegalize it everywhere.
Public mores take a back seat to millions of people's desires. It was a moral issue that blacks were not afforded the same rights as whites just 40 years ago. The moral was wrong then, it is wrong now.
