Just a Quick Note

I refuse to post at length on President Obama's endorsement of gay marriage.  Our economy has gone through its worst crisis since the Great Depression and is making an excruciatingly slow recovery, assuming it doesn't fall off the "fiscal cliff."  All the Bush era abuses except for torture are still in place and stronger than ever.  Republicans see a real opportunity to repeal the New Deal and turn the clock back to the Gilded Age.  The general militarization of law enforcement proceeds apace.  And I'm supposed to be all excited over the prospect of gay marriage?!?!?!  Sorry, but no.  I have other priorities.
