Great Speech

From Pam's House Blend , I read this great speech by Texas Represenative Senfronia Thompson, just when I thought everyone in Texas must be some kind of bigoted homophobe. She manages to point out not only how wrong this constitutional amendment against gay maraige business is, but also how many more important things there are for lawmakers to focus on. When I finished reading it, I felt like I should stand up and applaud, but realized I was at work and that would look really strange. Anyway, go read it, it's nice to remember that not everyone in government is either so crazy that they support discrimination or too much of a pussy to speak out against it.
