In his column for VanityFair.com, rocker Henry Rollins blasts former president Clinton for establishing the Defense of Marriage Act as well as current House leader John Boehner for defending it.

"When things threaten to become too constitutional, thankfully, there's someone like John Boehner, owner of every third tear cried in America, to step in and attempt to push America back into the good old days of darkness," Rollins writes. "Rather than shoulder the awesome burden of creating some damned jobs in America, he goes for the easy cheap shot of going after gay Americans. Again."

Rollins says that same-sex marriage is undeniably constitutional and that Boehner should be focusing on job creation, not defending DOMA.
