1. DADT, DOMA, EDNA? what do those stand for? |
|
But i agree. I think marriage equality will not come from states. First it will come from the Supreme Court when we get 2-3 new justices in there. Then it will be further supported by the legislature, along the same way as Brown v. Board & Civil rights act of 64.

3. he might tackle one -- one of those -- |
|
but i'll be very surprised if he tacke sall of them ' i dislike saying any straight politician is going to do anything for us.
we get out own -- through money, vote loyalty and volunteer effort.
if we get any of those -- it's because we turn out, volunteer and donate.
