I’m very happy that Obama had the courage and conviction to show his support for marriage equality despite the possible political fallout. Even though I’m pushing for campaign finance reform, I agree with MoveOn that support for Obama’s risk-taking is warranted and may be needed to help preserve the progress on the issue. The world needs more love, not more people trying to discriminate against consenting adults who love the way they choose. Tolerance is a virtue! Check out what MoveOn has to say on the issue. Thanks for caring.
