Sláinte!


On the anniversary of the birth of Harvey Milk, Ireland appears to have voted overwhelmingly to approve incorporating same sex marriage into their constitution. This popular vote makes it the 21st country to permit and protect same sex marriage. [I see different numbers because of differences in the level of recognition in places.] It is also the 10th predominantly Catholic country to do so.

To our brothers and sisters in Ireland, congratulations! You have done well and mightily.

I am over 300 miles from Dublin, but I could hear the cheering from here!
