Finally the US Court does the right thing and gives the ax to DADT which in the first step of Judaical wrangling is dead.

Marriage For Gays Gains Ground

There must be a million or so republicans that are tossing in their graves.  Further having once lived all over California I can only guess how those in Orange County California must be reacting to this news - add to that the people behind the whole prop 8 mess that is now before the courts.

An Op-Ed that is a Must Read {Prop 8} & Gay Rights

The majority should never be able to rule over those of a minority. If that had been allowed the USA would still have slaves.

Is this an Obama Apology?

Is this the President-Elect's apology to the gay community.

[I am adding this note after deeper thought - which is what my blog is about!!]

Thank you President-Elect Obama. 

I was disappointed at your first choice, 

very disappointed. But allowing the Bishop 

to speak Sunday is a wonderful way to include 

us in the weeks events and the fantastic 

history that it will be known for. But we will 

never know if it is, as I'm sure it is, 

a political act. Had it not been political you 

would have made some sort of announcement 

within hours of your first bad choice. But again 

thank you for thinking of us whatever the 

reason - thoughts are very important.

May I suggest you read this article also:

The Majority Can Not Always Rule Supreme Over The Minority!!

The minority groups in America have rights and the larger groups or a grouping of other minorities should not be able to take the rights of one group away by any vote.

If this were to be allowed and you look back in time the slaves would still be slaves.  It is as simple as that.

It is almost shameful how far behind the rest of the free world America  is when it comes to civil rights; and with out question when you consider gay rights.

On Gay Rights America is the discrimination capital of the world - there I said it!!
