I happened to be in the vicinity of the White House a few weekends ago and got to witness the amazing turnout for the National March for Equality. One of the more memorable signs that I saw read, "When do I get to vote on YOUR marriage?" Nuff said.

I disagree. The best thing is arguably DC would have the best choices for elected officials in the nation.

As long as DC still lives under taxation without representation then the American Revolution still continues.
