President Obama has been elected as the 44th President of the United States of America. Today is a beautiful day. I am enlightened. And proud to be an American, finally after eight long ass years.

I have something weighing on my mind though. California voters have proven that we have not come as far as some of us would like to believe. There are still many people, for whatever reason, that are too close minded to accept differences. They have stripped many people of their pride. They have made some believe they are not a worthy human being. I am horrified that 50 some odd years after our country unified, that we are again discriminating others because they are different. Voters have stripped them of rights because of who they love and who they want to commit to and spend their lives with. How can people be so naive to believe that in any way shape or form that would take away from what they have? Your marriage should be strong. A marriage is between 2 people, not the whole flippin state. Prop 8 is shameful and I am ashamed I did not do more to smother it. It was a campaign that won because of ridiculous lies spread by religious “cults” and out of state special interests. How is that legal? How is the prop legal at all? How did the prop even make it on the ballot? How did it pass after all the people that spoke out against it?

Equality under the law this is not. This is oppression.

I hope there are herds of lawyers out there trying to smash this. I wish I could do more.

Here is an interesting tid bit. Read the comment section! I heart Steve.
