Law & order
During Loretta Lynch's confirmation hearing Wednesday, Sen. Lindsey
Graham (R-S.C.) tried to take the attorney general nominee down the
slippery-slope argument often made against the marriage equality movement by
inquiring what the legal difference is between marriage of same-sex couples and
that of three or more people.
'What is the legal difference between a state -- a ban on same-sex
marriage being unconstitutional but a ban on polygamy being
constitutional?" he inquired at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
"Could you try to articulate how one could be banned under the
Constitution and the other not?"
