A Dark Spot

by Lindsey on November 10, 2008

For those of us who voted for Obama, the afterglow of election night is still going strong. What didn’t goes so well on November 4 was the rights of Gays and Lesbians to love whomever they choose. It’s appalling. Thank Goodness, Keith Olbermann is just as appalled as I am because he says it best.

Thanks to Mr. Olberman…
I love this…from Wikipedia about cultural references to Omar Khayyám:
Khayyám is quoted at the end of Clarence Darrow’s A Plea for Mercy at the trial of Leopold and Loeb. “So I be written in the Book of Love/I do not care about that Book above/Erase my name or write it as you will/So I be written in the Book of Love.”

But even better still…
In a series of “Rocky and Bullwinkle” cartoons, the story line revolves around the “Ruby Yacht of Omar Khayyam” – a jewelled toy boat.
