Iowa Proud

So, now that I have logged on to my blog for the first time in MONTHS, I feel the need to post twice.   Today the Iowa Supreme Court ruled that same sex marriage is constitutional in Iowa.  I am proud of our state and proud to be a native Iowan.  Someday we will look back on times when same sex couples couldn't marry in the same way we look at slavery, woman suffrage and laws against interracial marriage.  I know Iowa is not a worldly place, but in the last 14 months we have chosen Barack Obama as our democratic candidate in the Iowa caucuses and now our Spreme Court has handed down this ruling.  Yay Iowa!

(see also my friend Jenn's blog, she is quite eloquent on the subject)
