Love is Love

The Supreme Court struck down DOMA today, which means that my friend Mark will now be able to sponsor his husband Fred, who is French, for a green card, and their family of four children will no longer be in jeopardy of one of their parents being deported. The political is personal.

  4. We may move slowly toward sanity and justice, but I do think the world is generally headed in the right direction! I'm happy for your friends and for all the thousands of people that this ruling affects in such a direct and immediate way.

  6. congratulations to mark and fred! a long time coming...we have to take our victories to heart and celebrate them fiercely.
    there is so much else much else going down in the political sector that is just plain old nasty, small-minded, and mean.
    at last, some hard-won happiness!
