C'mon, guess.

Would you believe Iowa? Gotcha!

I'm cool with the responses. We are getting closer and closer to marriage recognition. And if you want to do more than complain, well, I can tell you how. You see the very welcome California gay marriage decision means Iowa's going to need some love from you all as its sure to inflame the Republicans trying to take over the Iowa legislature where they are presently in the minority. You see we've got our own gay marriage battle here in Iowa, which is now before our state Supreme Court which, as of this week, has a 4-3 progressive majority. And the legislature is at risk because the dems this year held firm against a Constitutional amendment to make our gay citizens second class citizens, which followed their actions last year in extending civil rights protections to the GLBT community. So please send some love if you can. More info at the link. http://actblue.com/page/iowaneedsu

Pam is among the best. I really do not get over there nearly often enough. She has much, much more on the subject:
