Seething Mom's Open Letter To Obama

Liked, moved, wanted to share this :

My husband and I understood exactly what those horrible marriage amendments were really all about and we knew it had nothing to do with protecting the sanctity of our 27-year marriage, and everything to do with hate, ignorance and bigotry masquerading as a mandate from God. It was also the point at which we painfully realized that enough of our fellow Arizonans, possibly friends and neighbors among them, felt so strongly that our son was not worthy of the same rights they enjoyed that they could pull the lever for enshrining his second-class citizenship into our state constitution. I cannot describe the pain we felt. Saying it was excruciating just doesn't do it justice.


(Hoping my amateur attempts at HTML construction work, given the wizywigg is still down, at least at work. Is it some 'latest java update' that work might not have? 'Stration.)
