To hear her tell it (to a bunch of Texans who want to hear it), Fitzwalkerstan is the greatest American success story in the history of success.

What The World Needs Now Is Love, Sweet Love.
There is far too much hate. Their are far too many who want to ban happiness for too many people because of life style choices,race issues etc. It is wonderful that there is a sane choice for those in Wisconsin.
Congrats to all of you newlyweds!

I thought all this marriage equality was suppose to turn us all gay. At least that's what the right wing fundies tell me.

they'll probably be among the last, moving into the 21st century kicking and screaming to get back to the 19th. although i hear there's a court case in a district course that move it along quicker than i think.

are both horrible people and her husband is just as bad.

Sure hope he can't stop this, doesn't affect me at all and makes a lot of people very happy.

It's all the fake religion here too.

the turning of popular belief toward and the impediments to marriage equality falling away in state after state is a bright spot in an otherwise pretty dark time in this country's history. maybe we are evolving after all in spite of the haters.

Otherwise, they will find, as we women are discovering, that all the hard work and activism they've put in, all the efforts and time, will come to NOTHING if republi-CONS keep winning elections. ANY elections. They WILL do everything they can to roll back the progress you fought so hard to realize, and take the rights for which you fought and struggled and agonized - AWAY. Emphasis on local and state. AND keeping the US Senate TRUE BLUE, please!

Want to keep this wonderful forward move secure and protected? THEN GET OFF YER ASSES AND VOTE!!!!!
