Marriage Equality - Keith Olbermann

One of my favorite pieces on marriage equality.  And what’s most important is that it comes from an LGBTQ ally.  This kind of support for human rights is moving and critically important.    

[Gay marriage] won’t destroy the democracy; it doesn’t destroy the family; it strengthens the institution of marriage and its principal premise of fidelity; and it increases the number of people living in stable and loving homes

In a time of impermanence and fly-by-night relationships these people over here want the same chance at permanence and happiness that is already yours. They don’t want to deny you yours. They don’t want to take anything away from you. They want what you want: a chance to be a little less alone in the world. And your acceptance of their love turns out to be your own expression of love to your fellow human beings.
