WHAT I LOVE THIS WEEK!
"I am here today because of a conversation I had last June when I was voting. A woman at my polling place asked me, "Do you believe in equal, equality for gay and lesbian people?" I was pretty surprised to be asked a question like that. It made no sense to me. Finally I asked her, "What do you think our boys fought for at Omaha Beach?" I haven't seen much, so much blood and guts, so much suffering, much sacrifice. For what? For freedom and equality. These are the values that give America a great nation, one worth dying for."
--Philip Spooner, 86 years old, lifetime Republican, World War II veteran and gay marriage supporter.
I wish more Philip Spooner's would stand up and speak their mind!
