Yesterday, Spain, following on the heels of Canada, approved Gay Marriage.
This was despite the strong opposition of the Catholic Church.
Telling are the polls which show that 7 out of 10 spaniards supported legalizing Gay Marriage.
This movement cannot be stopped, the right-wing surge is going to recede and this, and other progressive steps will come.
Let's hope it starts in 2006, I think it will.
It just saddens me that America can't be at the head of this movement rather than trailing along sullenly behind.

They swung WAY to the right and kind of stuck. Just one little thing will start the swing back down.
