Quote of the Day

"I'm basically in support [of same-sex marriage]. ... I personally support people doing what they want to do. I think it's wrong for someone to stop someone else from doing that."—Former President Bill Clinton.

This is not, as you'll note, a full-throated endorsement of federally legalized same-sex marriage, but it is a big deal for one of the most prominent Democrats in the nation to say he is personally in favor of same-sex marriage.

Bill Clinton has never said this on the record before. Reading it actually made me a little light-headed.


Blub.
