Obergefell v. Hodges - SCOTUS hears same sex marriage oral arguments today

SCOTUS is hearing argument in Obergefell v. Hodges et all today on two questions presented:

1.     Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to license a marriage between two people of the same sex?

2.     Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to recognize a marriage between two people of the same sex when their marriage was lawfully licensed and performed out-of-state?

You can listen to the oral arguments on the SCOTUS website. 

[Edit] If you don't want to listen to the whole argument SCOTUSblog has made a 30 min audio super cut.
