Welcome To The Light



There's alot of footage to choose from out there but this one from CNN's Showbiz Tonight struck me because it says so much. Whoopi putting down her suitcase and Sherry's tears. Elisabeth's moment of recognizing the reality around her.... all around her. I still can't stand Elisabeth but hey, we're moving on here and she's welcome to come along.

And, the announcer's pointing out that for many Americans this moment was tarnished. Millions of Gay and Lesbian Americans still cannot put down their suitcase.... and that's not right. Not right at all. I think this will not stand and they will be allowed the civil unions and adoption rights they deserve. For now it is sad that so many Americans feel threatened and fearful of nothing more than love.

That's sad.

This will not stand.

Welcome to the light.
