This issue is unfolding to be a total disaster for the US government. This will leave the executive in power at the moment the right to basically veto any SCOTUS case concerning a US law, effectively lending a retroactive veto not susceptible to an override to any law ever passed. The implications on the balance of the three branches is IMMENSE and it is not being addressed.
Here is an article summarrizing the issues more eloquently than I can manage.

No matter what your stance on DOMA, you should be against this unprecedented procedural undercutting of branch balances.
