We watched the vice presidential debate last night. I actually thought Sarah Palin did a pretty good job. At least she didn't have any embarrassing moments, as with the Couric and Gibson interviews.

I'm disappointed that the democrats won't come out and say they are for gay marriage, but they are for:

  • Repealing DOMA (the Denial of Marriage Act)
  • Passing ENDA
  • Passing a GLBT-inclusive hate crimes bill
  • DP benefits for federal government workers
  • and probably some sort of civil union or domestic partner designation
The Republicans? None of the above.

How have you been?

You know more about that than I do ... I just distincting remember Biden flat out saying that they do not support gay marriage ... but from what you say, why aren't they? lol

The Republicans however ... no shocker there :P

I've been already. I know it's been damn near three months since I've last updated. I will do something about that I promise. I'm in the middle of an illness right now so it's been really hard for me to do anything ... even work. I'll be sure to update soon enough though.

*Hugs* later.
