Meanwhile, in Iowa...

In an amazing contrast to the sad news in Virginia, there is some amazing news coming out of Iowa (where gays like me can actually get married, and not destroy all of Christendom). Grinnell College, a great liberal arts college, has just elected an openly gay black man as its newest president.

Infreakingcredible!!!!!!!

Now that is what I am talking about. Marry your partner Dr. Kington, since you will be able to once you move (though if you are lucky, you will be able to marry in Washington, DC before you move out there). I hope you rock at Grinnell.

The introductory speech not only shows the partner and the one child who was present (the baby was at home with a cold), but when the small child insists upon getting up on stage with his dad we see a family before us.

They are a typical two-parent family, and will be treated as one in every way because they live in Iowa.

Dignity in our time - what a concept! I'm just sayin'...
