Yay love!

Generally I wouldn't post twice in a row, but this one is deserving of its own post -- in fact, I should have posted earlier today!

Judge strikes down California's Prop 8 ban on same-sex marriage.

YAY! Sooner or later, our country will move forward, even if we have to drag some people kicking and screaming along with us. Progress will be made. People will not be able to remove rights from some portions of our population. Hatred and discrimination will not be made law.

Fear won't win. Love will.

"In Prop. 8 ruling, facts win out over fear-mongering" Indeed!

By a Bush-appointed conservative-slanted judge, no less. Awesome! It's wonderful when people in positions of power defy their stupid set party lines to do the right thing.

Unfortunately it's headed back to court yet again. Let's hope the right thing keeps being done...
