The defense of the Defense of Marriage Act [DOMA] got a purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping little more complicated yesterday as the law firm that the House of Representatives had purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping hired to defend the law withdrew from the case. As The New York Times stated bluntly, the firm dropped the case "amid pressure from gay rights groups."


The Atlanta-based firm, King & Spalding, had purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping agreed to take the case, and one of its lawyers, Paul D. Clement, was to purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping lead the legal effort to defend the constitutionality of DOMA, which defines marriage as the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping union of a man and a woman in terms of federal recognition. The law also prevents any state from purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping being forced to grant legal recognition to a same-sex marriage performed in another state.

Robert D. Hays, Jr., chairman of King & Spalding, released a statement in which he said: "In reviewing this purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping assignment further, I determined that the process used for vetting this purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping engagement was inadequate. ... Ultimately I am responsible for any mistakes that purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping occurred and apologize for the challenges this may have created."

Clement, a purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping former solicitor general of the United States under President George W. Bush, immediately resigned from purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping King & Spalding and purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping will continue to represent the House of Representatives in the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping case.

As The New York Times reported, Clement said: "I resign out of the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping firmly held belief that a representation should not be abandoned because the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping client's legal position is purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping extremely unpopular in certain quarters. ... Defending unpopular clients is what purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping lawyers do. I recognized from the outset that this statute implicates very sensitive issues that purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping prompt strong views on both sides. But having undertaken the representation, I believe there is purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping no honorable course for me but to complete it."

Gay rights groups hailed the law firm's decision. Activist groups such as the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping Human Rights Campaign had lobbied King & Spalding to drop the case. The Weekly Standard obtained copies of emails sent by the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping Human Rights Campaign to supporters that read, in part: "Later that purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping day we announced the elements of our campaign to show King & Spalding' hypocrisy for purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping taking on Defense of DOMA while touting their pro-gay policies - including their 95% score on HRC's Corporate Equality Index. ... In the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping meantime we also contacted many of the firm's clients, LGBT student groups at top law schools and purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping used social media to inform the public about K&S's wrongheaded decision."

The success of the group's efforts to intimidate King & Spalding serves as a purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping warning of things to come. This is the kind of intimidation that purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping will be used against any organization or institution - or purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping law firm - that takes a controversial case and opposes the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping agenda of the gay rights movement. Watch and be warned.

We should also take special note of the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping statement by Paul Clement. He defended his commitment to defend DOMA and purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping the U.S. House of Representatives by stating, "Defending unpopular clients is what lawyers do."

So, now DOMA and purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping the House of Representatives fall under the category of "unpopular clients" despite the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping fact that DOMA was passed by the overwhelming vote of both houses of Congress and purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping was signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1996. That statement underlines the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping moral revolution happening in our midst and indicates what groups like the purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping Human Rights Campaign are certain is the direction of history. Armed with that purchase xenical without a prescription overnight shipping confidence, intimidation is now the order of their day.
