Not so happy anniversary...

How's this for hypocrisy? The same day President Bush traveled to Topeka, Kan. to honor the anniversary of Brown v. Board of Ed., a landmark case that brought an end to segregation, he issued a statement renewing a pledge to ban gay marriage. "The sacred institution of marriage should not be redefined by a few activist judges," the statement read. Similar to the same activist judges that put him in office? Doesn't calling for marital segregation or outright opposition (Bush may attempt to fully deny gays rights by blocking civil unions) fly in the face of the intent behind the historic decision he is praising today? Can this man get any more two-faced? Couldn't he at least have waited a day before peddling this hate-speech? Did he have to spit on us today of all days? Won't anyone stand up for us in Congress and call this politically motivated spade a spade?
