The coming 'distraction' : Gay marriage in Mass in 1 week
I put 'distraction' in quotation marks because it would probably be insulting not to.

Will Bush start pushing his constitutional amendment? Will he openly say, "I hate gay people, vote for me?" Will he force Kerry to vote on it? Will everyone stop caring about Iraq? Will it be a bigger deal than the marriages in San Franciso? What does the near future portend?

D-Day is May 17th. H-Hour is 00:00.

"Cambridge, which will staff its city hall with volunteers on the night of the 16th, is currently the winner with its pledge to begin the weddings at midnight sharp; a dozen other towns have vowed to open their offices early on the 17th."

3. His little marriage amendment
thing was not popular. I'd love for him to bring it up. It does nothing for Bunnypants, but maybe he's not smart enough to figure that out.

As my husband said, those that hate gays are already in the Repuke camp(read Fundies, and I don't buy the line that they need to be encourgaged to vote, they LIVE to vote against someone like the Demon seed Kerry) all it does is piss off anyone that knows, cares or is related to anyone gay.


Our great leader, such a uniter, and a compassionate one to boot!
