I have to say that I feel more included and more visible in this convention as a gay Democrat

[Maven]

than I ever have before.

Finally, our party is embracing us, visibly, audibly, publicly, without reservation. Finally, the party we have supported for so long, is treating their advocacy for our full equality as something to be PROUD of.

As a lifelong Democrat, it is really beautiful to watch.

1. Zach Walls was amazing!

[Maven]

4. Yes he is.

I'm so glad he was given a slot at the podium.

In addition to the many other speakers who have advocated forcefully in support of our rights in the past few days.

2. OH, that's excellent.

I'm so proud that our party is the party of inclusion.

3. Woot!!!!!

5. I still haven't figured out what's up with the Log Cabin Republicans. Are they into S&M or something

Why would anyone who isn't a white, male, straight, rich person even considering voting rMoney? It just doesn't make sense.

6. I have known a few

and I have even dated one before. I can tell you from experience, they are deeply self-hating, psychologically distorted people.

[HopeHoops]

7. Oh, you mean Republicans.

[Maven]

8. Hehe, touche.

[Cha]

9. I bet it is! And, I'm so

happy for it, too, Maven.

10. .

11. I am glad to hear that

I was thinking, especially on Tuesday that it was so great to have almost every single speaker I caught affirm the repeal of DADT and/or the right to marry whoever you love. I live a fairly isolated life so on one hand I can't believe how backwards certain people still are and on the other hand politicians and so many mainstream middle of the road people coming out and standing in solidarity still kind of chokes me up.

12. I'm happy too. And proud to have voted this party in. Let's keep them in, shall we?

And MORE so.
