DOMA honor roll

As the SCOTUS hearings begin, a reminder that only 14 Senators -- all Dems -- had the courage to vote against DOMA. Let's take a minute and salute them:

Akaka (D-HI)
Boxer (D-CA)
Feingold (D-WI)
Feinstein (D-CA)
Inouye (D-HI)
Kennedy (D-MA)
Kerrey (D-NE)
Kerry (D-MA)
Moseley-Braun (D-IL)
Moynihan (D-NY)
Pell (D-RI)
Robb (D-VA)
Simon (D-IL)
Wyden (D-OR)

Only Boxer, Feinstein, and Wyden remain in the Senate today. Well done, all of you.
