(36,974 posts)3. When you were listening/watching the CSPAN audio (with photos) ...
did you notice that Sri Srinivasan was there arguing for our side?
Sri Srinivasan is one of President Obama's nominees for the D.C. Court of Appeals: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_federal_judges_appointed_by_Barack_Obama
He appeared at the 17:30 minute mark in the CSPAN audio/video: http://www.c-span.org/Events/Supreme-Court-Hears-Oral-Argument-on-Same-Sex-Marriage/10737439017-3/
