Homo / Politics Dan Savage in the Times
Posted by Andrew R Tonry on Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 3:04 PM
As Amy noted earlier, Mercury buddy Dan Savage was on the Colbert Report last night (where I must say, he may have actually out-funny'd Steven, which is no easy task). Well Dan's on a roll, following last night's TV appearance with an editorial in today's New York Times. The piece concerns a less talked about, although quite destructive, anti-gay measure passed in Arkansas.
Bang on wizard!

While Alaska has lately done quite enough on the national political scene, Initiative 1 is home-fried Arkansan bigotry, not Alaskan.
I was really hoping Dan would turn his sights on Arkansas. That anti-adoption measure is just grade-A bullshit.
It seems obviously counter intuitive to try to protect the well being of foster children by denying them placement with an entire community of loving people.
Stay classy, Arkansas.
