Everybody likes to say how good the american people are or how smart the people are or how only if the government was as good as the people. I could disagree more the people are sheep. Decieved easily by focus group polling. The people maine just voted to take away rights of their fellow citizens for no good reason I can think of an credible argument of why they would do that. Its official gay people are the new black people. I mean its hard being black I can attest but damn a a foward leaning state like maine shooting down gay marriage. I cant believe the state of maine is homophobic because thats the only reason you could vote yes on banning gay marriage.
Think about this for second the yes on 1 campaign was saying gay marriage will be taught in school. Which was lie. But think about that are we such a bigoted society that we cant teach our kids that people can love who they want pour society is extremely fucked up. This should be a eye opener to liberal progressive reasonable people whatever the fuck you want to call yourselves. That we dont have the easy job if you want the easy job be a republican. They just want to keep shit the same or take us back a 150 years. We liberals want to move the country forward the problem with that is sometime we gotta take half country with us kickin and screamin. Thats why it is so critical we captalize on our majorities and try to pass the best health care reform. the best climate change bill and we need to end dont ask dont tell. Because the reality is we could just as easily not be in power in 4 years because there are more bigots in this country then we would like to believe.
