Thank You Mr.President.

It was really nice to get up and read some positive news for a change. I think we just made a huge leap forward in acceptance.

The President has just decreed that same sex couples have some of the same rights that hetero couples have had for years....they don't have the right to marry yet..but they now have the right to be there when their loved one is ill...to make hard medical decisions...... to sit by a dying mate in the restricted areas of the hospital.  They're finally being acknowledged as next of kin.

If the man does nothing else ...he's just paid me back for my vote.

Go forth and google...history has just been made.

Its a beautiful day.
