Tojaso

It seems I wasn't prone to conspiracy thinking after all. Aravosis has unearthed this tidbit:

Andrew Sullivan discovered that one of the three Obama Justice Department attorneys who wrote and filed the anti-gay DOMA brief last night is W. Scott Simpson, a Mormon Bush holdover who was awarded by Alberto Gonzales for his defense of the Partial Birth Abortion act.

Sullivan raises the questions I want answers to:

So who signed off on this brief? Who is responsible for this mess? Or are gays that low a priority for DOJ?

I think we all know that answer to that last one.
