We Can Haz Marrege!

Lotsa stuff happened on this historic day, mis bonitos. 

First and foremost, same-sex marriage came one step closer to finally becoming a reality in the District!  Congratulations to all of the happy couples that went to the courthouse and got their marriage licenses.  Hooray for a hella important first step on the path to true first-class citizenship! 

The big ceremony on the 9th is sure to be off the chain!

Also today, because they don't know what else to do instead of fixing the health care system or the economy, House Republicans announced that they want to put Ronnie Reagan's mug on the $50 bill.  This cult of personality surrounding Reagan perpetuating how great he was will never cease to confuse and confound me.  It's like rich Miami Cuban ex-pats who romanticize the "good ole" days of Batista, I swear.  Haters, the whole lot of 'em.

Whatever.  We have marriage!
