Words Of Wisdom of the Day: Washington state Rep. Maureen Walsh (R-Walla Walla) chokes back tears as she speaks candidly in support of the state’s bill to legalize same-sex marriages.
The legislation passed yesterday by a vote of 55 to 43 and now heads to Gov. Chris Gregoire, who has already promised to sign it into law.
Money: “My daughter came out of the closet a couple of years ago and you know what I thought I was going to agonize about that. Nothing’s different. She’s still a fabulous human being and she met someone she loves very much. And some day, by God, I want to throw a wedding for that kid. And someday I hope that’s what I can do.”
[buzzfeed.]
The fact that this is still an issue that needs to be voted on sickens me. This lady made me very happy, along with the passing ruling in the state of Washington. Homophobes, if the lumberjacks aren’t afraid of gay marriage, what are the rest of you pussies so scared of?
