John Corvino said, ‘So I’m willing to support the “half a loaf’ politicians. I’m just not willing to pretend that they’re offering the full loaf, or to rest content when I get it. I’m not willing to settle for ’separate but equal’ another oxymoron in this debate.”

John, this is exactly it. We acknowledge that it is “half a loaf”, we take it appreciatively while we can, and then we grab a little more, and a little more, until we eventually have the entire loaf.

“Obama also opposes anti-gay state marriage amendments that McCain supports.”

Yeah, he has spoken out so forcefully about the propositions in CA and FL. I think that we can finally put to rest the notion that Obama really opposes discrimination.

“SEPARATE BUT EQUAL” = separate AND unequal.

Oh really, so the natural charm of Sarah is not going to be appreciated because an SNL sketch??? If that was truth George Bush wouldn’t be in office. At least Bush wanted to give the impression of not being a right wing extremist, remember those Log Cabin ads slamming Gore and Cheney’s promise to bring some sort of legal protection to gay couples during a debate? Sarah Palin doesn’t know how to hide all that. The more you learn about her, wanting to ban books, hunting wolves from helicopters, or that cute photo of her, her daughter and a dead moose or the fact that she is Super Prolife, progun, and a trainwreck of a series of interviews with Katie Couric. Nah, it has to be Tina Fey. She is not polarizing at all.
