Current’s “infoMania” showed a great, sarcastic video about the media’s treatment of figure skater, Johnny Weir, as well as his costumes and routines. Current’s segment does a perfect job of pointing out the media treats Johnny Weir differently from his teammates throughout the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Have a laugh and watch the video.

A beacon of light,
Shining in a landscape of darkness.
Her hand reached out and,
She whispered to me,
“Come and join me here.”
 
Perched in the midst of rolling waters,
She stands before us all.
She stands alone.
She stands for us all.

 

Promises she made,
Are promises she has kept.
In a world of darkness,
Her light stands bright.
She whispered to me,
“I will protect you.”

Entranced by her strength;
She knows more.
She believes more.
She dreams more.

Hand in hand, the work began.
Hand in hand, the work goes on.
Asking us to be more,
Allowing us to be more,
She whispered to me,
“Fear not, for I am here.”

And with her at my side,
I stand at the sunset gates.
Broken shackles at our feet,
We stand together.
We stand as one;
Against enslavement by the past,
Against oppression,
Against tyranny of the majority.

And with her silent lips,
She whispered to me,
“I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

We have to show every citizen that we, like them, are citizens of the United States; citizens that enjoy the rights to organize and to speak, and in being so, we deserve and are owed the same rights to marriage afforded to them. For too many centuries, the LGBT community has literally been put in a closet and now we, gay and straight alike, not only put our money where our mouth was in fighting Prop 8, but we are showing our strength in fighting the outcome.

Money, strength and justice are on our side. Victory is the only result!

March for liberty and justice for all, this Saturday, November 15th, at your local city hall or other organized location. Find your location at www.jointheimpact.com.

We have Lady Liberty on our side and no church, nor neo-conservative or fear alone will stop us until each of us can live free from the tyranny of the majority we witnessed on Tuesday, November 4, 2008
