Really quick: courtesy of the blog Feeling Listless, I just found this video of New York State Senator Diane Savino speaking passionately and eloquently about gay marriage. She’s funny and moving. Enjoy!
[Sadly, the bill about which Savino was speaking failed by a vote of 38 to 24.]
Didn’t you just LOVE the body language of the men behind her as she started to really get into her speech?
People shut down whenever anything that threatens their ideal little boxes crosses their threshold. It would be UNTHINKABLE and a complete waste of time to find out how other people live or feel.
I’m bitter right now, due to similar, but unrelated topics, and my venom runs high.
Mrs/Miss Savino may be the very definition of smart and sexy in that part of the country.
