POPSHard Roads Ahead Ex Governor Wise did one of the best things for our state which was to create the PROMISE scholarship program. However, he did not run again for office because he was a married man who had an affair, and obviously the voters in this state thought his personal life was more important than his accomplishments. It's a shame because our current governor is rumored to have many more skeletons in his closet, but he keeps them under the covers so to speak, and I've seen him do NOTHING for this state IMHO. Get with the program here baby, shhhhhhhhh . . . do what you want and get down and dirty when the lights are low and just carry your Bible in the meantime, it's God, Country, and the red, white, and blue.

POPSCalifornia Says YES to Same-Sex Marriage Great news, indeed! Even greater news is that Ahnold has promised to abide by the court's decision, and NOT support the upcoming state constitutional amendment outlawing gay marriage. So, this is a done deal. This comes at a very interesting time for me. My partner and I are getting married on August 31. We are a same-sex couple, and we live in Canada where gay marriage came into being in 2005 (country-wide.) So, naturally, we are really thrilled to know that finally the U.S. seems to be taking a step in the progressive social direction. It is certainly about time.
