Well, darn it...
Nov. 5th, 2008 06:54 amProp. 8. Now I want to cry for other reasons and none of them good.
Gee, we're right back to my first election ever as a voter and Oregon trying to
make it illegal to be gay. The ACLU has the paperwork ready to challenge this piece of *insert expletive here*, right? Like the second it's passed? 'Cause that's a really awful contrast to what just happened with the presidency last night. Discrimination based on a religious rule can't hold against the constitution, and I want to see them try. How do I explain that to my daughter? Yes, we just elected the first African-American president, but a lot of Californians think that only certain people deserve equal respect under the law? Not looking forward to that today.
