    Diane Savino, New York State Senator, raddest speech in the world on gay marriage.

    via davidpress and robhuebel.

    For those against gay marriage, I will gladly watch a speaker of your choosing who lists the reasons why they oppose gay marriage. I invite you to do the same and watch this video of a New York Senator speaking on why she supports gay marriage.

    ditto.

    this woman is wonderful!!!

    Agreed. Who is Diane Savino? Thank you Gawker.

    “We in government don’t determine the quality of people’s relationships. If we did, we would not issue three-quarters of the marriage licenses that we do.”

      If you’re looking for a real-life West Wing moment, this’ll definitely do. But it’s still depressing.
