I was going to do a post about Obama asking Rick Warren to give the invocation at the inauguration, and why I'm disappointed. But right now, I can't. I'm too upset.
For everyone who doesn't get why Obama asking Rick Warren to give the invocation at the inauguration is a big deal? This is why:
The sponsors of Proposition 8 asked the California Supreme Court on Friday to nullify the marriages of the estimated 18,000 same-sex couples who exchanged vows before voters approved the ballot initiative that outlawed gay unions.
I'm sitting here at my desk in tears, because these fucking assholes can't even let me be happy with having made it in before Prop 8. No, they want to rip up my marriage license--and you know I'm not getting my $171 back!--and make it real clear that I'm just a fucking dyke who doesn't deserve to be happy or treated just like anyone else.
That's what Rick Warren is saying, although he makes it sound nice and not like the hateful bigotry that it is. And Obama is saying that telling me I'm not worthy of being a full citizen is just a "disagreement".

Followed you here from TNC's site via your user name. I just wanted to let you know that I am so sorry to know that your marriage is in jeopardy. My husband (not, sadly, legally, of course) and I thought maybe we'd get married the next time we were out in CA. I hope their case against your marriage fails.
