Of Elizabeth Alexander, who will read at Obama's inauguration before or after the homophobe, I have this to say: why not Lucille Clifton par example, who is alive and seriously kickin' and much better? Two disappointments, Mr. O.
And now the Prop 8 supporters want all of the existing gay marriages in California annulled. As far as I can tell, their chief aim is to make couples cry cuz they get off on that.
