there are lots of reasons to be upset about the mormon church sending letters to its minions encouraging them to ban same sex marriage in california, but as my friend points out, irony is high on the list:

you would think that a group of people who were almost wiped out and had to flee across the country because they “redefined marriage” would be a little more understanding.

i can’t recall which pundit said it, but it’s one of the best descriptions of george w. bush i’ve heard:

“george w. bush is a man who was born on third base, but thinks he hit a triple.”

i wonder how many people thought to themselves in the voting booth “a black man is good enough to be president on ’24′, i guess its ok in real life”.

i went in to the office yesterday for only the third time in a year.

it was a group training session and i couldn’t help but feel like a movie extra the entire time i was there.

if there is anyone out there who still doubts that america is a place where all things are possible. who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time. who still questions the power of our democracy.

tonight is your answer.
