Yesterday

Thank you for sharing President Obama's and Michelle's kind words about Rob and Michelle Reiner.

I'm heartbroken.

In addition to their many progressive causes, Marriage Equality was high on the list. I encourage folks to watch an excellent documentary called, The Case Against 8, regarding their part in helping to to get same-sex marriage legalized.

RIP, Rob and Michelle.
