Wedding Rings

I'm not a big fan of politics. I don't follow because I get angry and I have political friends who can get angry and keep me up to date on important things. But I have a lifelong subscription to the Rachel Maddow show and get massive Twitter updates from DC freaks, so I now know that my councilmen (save Marion Barry, who's an addict, and some person I've never heard of or paid attention to before) passed a bill to legalize gay marriage.

I'm ecstatic.

Not only because it's a big step for the District, but because now my friends can finally get married in this country (legally) but because I finally feel like there's a win in my, OUR corner.

Marion Barry. I'm glad you're only one of two council-members who shot this down. Honestly, I'm surprised anyone followed your vote after all the shit you put the city through this past few years.

Major fail, Barry.
