I still, to this day have been unable to embed links into my posts. Can someone, anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong. There is a little button at the top of the page that I am typing on right now to embed a link, but when I do what it tells me, nothing shows up. This has annoyed me since this little web page came into existence, whenever it came into existence.

Because I cannot embed this, just copy and paste it. It is very good and gets at the heart of the one major issue that is disheartening me about the Obama administration. There are a few issues that get to the core of what it is that I believe in, and why I voted the way I voted. Near the very top of that list is Civil Rights for people of all sexual prefences.
I am a realist and I understand that the President has a limited amount of political capital to spend and that Public Health Care needs to be at the top of his list of priorities. I get that.
But the part of me that cried every time he spoke leading up to the election. The part of me that still gets excited when I hear him speak, that part of me needs to hear him come out, strong on this issue.
Just keep hammering on the fact that this is a civil rights issue. This is not religious, this is not about what your book of stories says about marriage being between a man and a woman. This is about Inalienable Rights.

Terry: are you inserting the URL into the popup box?
If you're having an issue with that, it's probably something in your browser. Click on the HTML editor in the Blogger interface and hard-code the link.
If you're still confused, send me an email (osborneink (at) hotmail dot com).
it's not "sexual preference", it's sexual orientation. all you are doing with the word preference is perpetuating the narrow vision myth that homosexuals are making a conscious choice, i.e. i prefer vanilla with rainbow sprinkles over chocolate. c'mon bear, in a battle of wording (ahem, the vernacular of the u.s. constitution), we need to as you say to avi, "use your words!!
Kate,
Dead Right. I was really tired when I wrote that.
It will not happen again.
