Thank You, Judge Walker

And now that I'm going, congratulations California! I was very happy and excited by the recent ruling of Judge Walker declaring Prop 8 unconstitutional. If you haven't read the opinion, it's amazing and as good a read as I've enjoyed lately. Just my opinion, but I think especially his findings of fact are going to create some real excitement on the issue of gay and lesbian marriage -- probably very soon and probably before the Supreme Court of the United States. The order can be read at http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/i//MSNBC/Sections/NEWS/A_U.S.%20news/Life/gaymarriage.pdf

But, even more compelling and interesting to me was Keith Olbermann's comment at the end of his show. I was in tears by the end. If you missed it,

The documents speak for themselves. I'll just close with Olbermann's quote of Clarence Darrow who quoted the Persian poet, Omar-Khayyam:

"So I be written in the Book of Love;
I do not care about that Book above.
Erase my name, or write it as you will,
So I be written in the Book of Love."
