Hmm. Interesting question. From my vantage point, the country seems to be taking a turn to the more conservative.
I know the New York Times wrote about the Buster censorship, and the Vermont papers obviously covered it. I agree that it should get wider distribution -- I wonder if Liz's paper picked it up.
Of course, the eyes of the nation are now turned to the Michael Jackson trial. All else pales beside that.
In Vermont, when civil unions were first introduced, there was a lot of opposition to them. What we’ve learned as a state is that the world hasn’t fallen apart since lesbians and gay couples were united. Polls have shown that the acceptance of civil unions has grown considerably since they were first introduced - that people who were against them are now for them. That’s because we got to see these families close up; we got our education.
Why shouldn’t the rest of the country get this education as well?
