    Just saw this on Have A Gay Day on Facebook. Needless to say I'm ecstatic that like greatwhale said, our gay agenda is progressing, hehehe >:3 But congrats to RI, another giant step towards equality!

    It really is a great year and i expect more and more states to jump on board to equality.

    Not trying to highjack the thread, but does anyone know when we can expect a decision from the supreme court on the two cases on prop 8 and doma

    This needs to pass the House again. The judiciary committee will vote on Tuesday and the Full House will vote to legalize Thursday. Expected to pass both obstacles.

    I remember when NY did this I was watching on a live broadcast. It was exciting when it passed. Now, for me, it's just like... awesome, moving on (I guess since it is happening pretty quickly). I think that's a good thing... =)
    Great news
