“There was a time don’t ask don’t tell was a step forward. Now it’s over. Another milestone in defeating bigotry” – Mark Bittman
Except you know, for republicans.
Thankfully John McCain did not win the presidency. Now THAT would have been a “very sad day”
Nothing enrages me more than rich old white dudes spewing their ignorant opinion on things that don’t even affect their life. I mean if you only know rich old white dudes you can’t possibly imagine why anyone would want things to change.
Lesson to all: Go outside. Meet people. People that do not look like you. People that do not do all the same thing that you do. People that grew up across town, across the country, across the world. Appreciate them. Learn from them. Tell your friends about them. Teach your children about them. Report back.

I couldn’t have said it better myself. My rant has always been that especially any woman that voted republican was crazy.

Women that vote Republican are crazy. Teachers that vote Republican are crazy. Middle class families that vote Republican are crazy. Gays that vote Republican are crazy.
To me, votiing Republican is akin to saying, “I really, really, really care about money and God. I don’t care that much about the people of our country. But I love my money, really I do. Love it. Love God. Love that Jesus. The people? Meh. Who cares?” Democrats have a social agenda and Republicans are much more tuned into the ME than the US. Republicans are concerned with power, but Democrats are more about strength.
That’s just my two cents. Didn’t mean to take up your space with a rant of my own.
