"If you voted for this Proposition or support those who did or the sentiment they expressed, I have some questions, because, truly, I do not understand. Why does this matter to you? What is it to you? In a time of impermanence and fly-by-night relationships, these people over here want the same chance at permanence and happiness that is your option. They don't want to deny you yours. They don't want to take anything away from you. They want what you want—a chance to be a little less alone in the world." --- Keith Olbermann


This is a quote from Keith Olbermann's comment on California's proposition 8 and it's subsequent banning of gay marriages in the state of California. It totally reflects how I've felt about the issue for a long time. His whole comment is amazing and moving and impressively insightful. I think everyone, whether you're for or against gay marriage should see and read what he said on the issue. Here's a link to the written text and I'll attach the video here as well.
