“If a couple of lesbians or gay men want to get married, and they love each other, they should have the right to do that and enjoy all the legalities in our society that go along with that. I have no problem with that at all. I think that people who create these problems of homophobia and the likes of that do us a disservice. We are all human beings and one of the things that should motivate us, most of all, is love.”
Presidential candidate and former U.S. Senator Mike Gravel
interesting how social dems and libertarians converge on certain issues yet remain steadfastly miles apart on others. looking over his ‘issues’ page, i can’t be certain of gravel’s affiliation — on the surface, abolition of income tax suggests libertarian, whereas national health care suggests social dem.
but he is thunderously silent –like everybody else entertaining election hopes in the united states– on zionism’s long shadow over palestine.
gonna have to study this progressive sales tax proposal…
