AMERICAblog: Spontaneous Celebration in DC

    but gay and lesbian couples in california are probably going to be wake up to find that their fellow citizens have robbed them of their marriages. according to exit polls, white voters opposed the amendment while asian and latino voters were split. if the amendment passes, there will be some reconciling to be done between GLB and black voters in california. out-of-state catholics and mormons who supported this thing in huge numbers are beyond detestable, especially given the outright lies that were told to lure low-information voters.

    There's always going to be more work to do. And we're going to be on the front lines to do it.

    Hey Shii - glad to hear your up for more work. You wanna get in line to clean up the gnawed on chicken bones and watermelon rinds that you DemoCRAPS left in front of the White House? Oh wait, let someone else do it like the DemoCraps always do when they fall on their faces. I guess the first thing that needs to get done now is to rename this country. How about United States of Afromerica. Don't have to change the letter designation - still USA. The Presidential seal will need to be changed to a chicken (rotisserie, no less) or maybe "babacue" ; and instead of holding arrows and an olive branch, a crack pipe and a gangsta rag will do.

    and in Florida marriage is now defined as being one between One Man and One Woman. The price of wedding cake should double.

    Some people at 14th and U were shooting off some pretty high-grade fireworks.

    I just got home from downtown DC and people were all over chanting Obama. I have never seen so many people of all different colors and ages celebrating in unison and experiencing genuine joy with one another.

    This is a new America.

    I just woke up, read this post, and now the tears are streaming.

    No really....welcome back. Enough of you got out there that they couldn't steal it. Democracy just lived another day.

    From now to inauguration is a pretty dangerous time though. he may be a lame duck President (feel like I can use capitals again) but he's still a Bush.
