The Time is Now!

With the overturning of Prop 8 in California and the Democrats facing a potentially difficult mid-term election, the time to strike is now.  The judge who overturned the ruling did so on a basis of FACT, not belief.  This is an opportunity for the Democrats to seize on the issue and make a difference for The Family.  Most Americans understand what is at stake here and understand that it is a legal disparity between hets and homs in regards to how the government handles the issue of marriage.

If President Obama came out and said, my personal feelings aside, there is no logical reason to support a current system which rates one type of people over another...which is what DOMA and Prop 8 did, and its time to change this so that we are truly the home of the free.  This is what we are fighting for, a nation where everyone stands in equality and dignity regardless of their beliefs.  The choice is clear for any who value the spirit of what it means to be American.

Unfortunately, I'm afraid that like most good politicians, they're gonna blow it.  So much for leadership.
