We've been put in our place...

America may have won last night in the overall turn of our nation, but the Queer community suffered great setbacks at the hands of the voting public in California, Arkansas, Florida and Arizona. I am proud that we elected Obama, President but my pride and excitement are significantly tampered by the fact that a record number of people turned out to vote, and they said "no" to my rights. I am particularly astonished by California. I'll work out my frustration, but in the mean time, I am more than bitter sweet about the election.
