Mark Morford's latest.

This, to me, is the America worth fighting for. These are the laws I support. Don't believe in abortion? Don't understand gay people? Sexuality make you rashy? Think Harry Potter teaches kids evil and witchcraft? Don't marry a sexy gay witch abortionist. But don't you dare, based on your limited understanding of God and life, make laws declaring that I can't.

One of his best columns in ages.

What a great column. I've totally ganked the link from you.

This is brilliant. We need more angry liberals, those who refuse to apologise for telling the truth about right wing fascist pigs and their evil hypo-christian puppet masters.

Some of us non-Christian conservative right-wingers also happen to agree with him, too...

*nod* Much of what he said in that column could be as easliy uttered by a libertarian columnist as by a liberal.

Yeah -- it's one thing I loved in particular about the Dean campaign last year -- actual emotion and drive. Morford's got it in spades.

Veeeery interesting.

Reminds me of my best friend, edemynag. Which reminds me I need to post a link to something he wrote on DailyKos, and also now, a link to this.

We definitely need more of this.

LOvely sentiment.

I'm thinking of printing up some,"If you don't like gay marriage, then don't have one," stickers.

Ever read Brin's "Dogma of Otherness"?

[meardaba.livejournal.com]

That was great. A nice swift kick in the pants for all of us, because nobody's blameless at this point.

[yendi]

Nope. Why?

it explores a lot of the same themes as this but gives it a bit more depth and reasonableness
