If you read to me I could tell you everything that was read. They didn't know what it was. They knew I wasn't lazy, but what was it?
Whoopi Goldberg
If you're not sure how you feel about same-sex marriage, go and meet some of the families and see what they're looking for. Once you take it out of the caricature of what gay people are and what gay marriage is, and put it in the reality of family and what these folks are fighting for, it's really amazing.
