In yesterday’s New York Times, columnist Frank Rich penned one of the smartest, most poignant pieces on gay rights—from Stonewall to now—that we’ve read in a while. We especially love this quote (we’ve been thinking the exact same thing):
“If the country needs any Defense of Marriage Act at this point, it would be to defend heterosexual marriage from the right-wing “family values” trinity of Sanford, Ensign and Vitter.”
-Frank Rich, “Forty Years Later, Still Second-Class Americans,” The New York Times, June 28, 2009.
