And it looked like it was going to be a nice day, too

Today is one of those days where I want to resign from the human race. Virginia has elected someone I seriously think they're going to regret. Maine has shamefully voted down basic human rights... and in a pretty unConstitutional manner to boot. (Find me someone arguing gay marriage who isn't citing their religion, and I'll show you... well, a void, because I sure don't know of any. First Amendment, people! You know, the part where we DON'T let religion make our laws?)

And closer to home, I hear James Moran has once again "entertained" his audience with onscreen child snuff. James Moran is permanently on my personal "I'll gouge my eyes out before I spend one minute or one dollar on his work" list.

Two things:

As to Maine and marriage in general, I'll defer to Andrew Sullivan (http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2009/11/a-beginning-not-an-end.html) for the slightly more positive big picture.

Second, your starting out on politics and starting the paragraph "closer to home" made my brain hurt as I tried to figure out how Jim Moran (D-Va 8th District) came to be involved with child snuff films.

I confess, I do not lay that sin at his door! It's just that fandom is in my home, while the antics of Virginia's politicians don't affect me that much.
