Breaking News: Bush Sucks.

So President Bush addressed the nation this week, in both a radio address this weekend and at a press conference yesterday, to express his support for the Federal Marriage Amendment.

Being the kind of nerd I am, I've been listening to the C-SPAN coverage of the Senate today to hear the debates back and forth and it's absolutely disgusting how the Repuglicans are trying to say it's not a political move, that it's for the preservation of society and of course... it's for the children.

The Dems are holding their ground, the Senator from North Dakota, Byron Dorgan gave an awesome speech during yesterday's session about the issuse that truly matter to Congress -- dealing with the national debt so our children and their children won't be left to pay it all off, honoring our parents by making sure there is medicaid to take care of them, making sure our children are getting a proper education etc... Another Dem made the point that in the latest polls.. gay marriage ranked 33 in what mattered most to American citizens. 33rd place. That's 32 other things we could be talking about.

I hate this president and his administration. Ugh. The Consitution, in over 200 years, has only been amended 27 times. And we're talking about things like the Bill of Rights, freeing slaves, giving women the right to vote.. so many things that strive to give every American an equal voice. Now they "feel so strongly" about this, they feel they need to amend it again to exclude a group of Americans from a right given to everyone else? That's bullshit.

Agreed. I wish I had C-SPAN, cause I'd totally be listening/watching. ::shakes fist at not having cable:: I just have to stick with reading online updates occasionally.
