The whole Newsom/Gay Marriage thing

My friend said it best in her post to indybay: "I Got Married but NEWSOM IS NOT MY FRIEND"

Not to be cynical, and I'm happy for all the folks fighting to resolve custody issues, have access to their partners during medical crises, etc. but I see this as a brilliant political ploy on Newsom's behalf. I have to hand it to him, it's smart. But that doesn't change his horrible oppressive stance towards low-income folks and folks of Color in SF.

More on this, but Maz just got here and it's Mazzy night. Off to see Battle of Algiers.
