I wasn't going to say much about Prop 8. So happy was I with Obama's victory, the defeat of Prop 4 (How many more times do we have to vote that down?), and the passage of Prop 1A (Yay transit!) that I was prepared to grin and bear the affront to civil rights which was voted into my state's constitution on Tuesday. I thought I wanted to ignore the whole issue and let the trend of support for gay marriage among young voters take its slow but inevitable toll. But I just can't let it go.
I'll let Olbermann explain why, his clarity of thought on this issue puts my own words to shame.
