Olbermann you nailed it!!! Man you are hitting on all eight cylinders right now.
The American sense of freedoms and liberties to be free and love freely, but be strong with passion against tyranny and hate and even stand strong with force is being the outcry among many citizens and peoples of the world.
God bless, but remember to never amen, or the blessing request goes to the egyptian sun god ra amen.
Peace be with you and your family Keith Olbermann
What is the problem with America. I cannot believe Keith will stand as a journalist to make those statements knowing that people left their homes to go vote. America is democratic, there was a vote and a side won because they are the majority. Is that not how elections work? The majority win and you move on. But here is Keith, tongue lashing those who went out to vote, accusing them of hatred and berating people's religious views. Nobody told him that all those who voted have the same religious views. I don't understant this anymore. Do we all go out and protest that Obama won by majority and demand that the other candidate be made President because that is our opinion. No one person signed this to law, the community put it to a vote and there was a majority. Please, and please it is unfair to start victimizing people because of who or what they decided to cast their vote on. Let us take it in the chin and move on. That is not the end of the world.
The reason this bill against Gay peoples rights got passed was because of the old people that came out to vote on election day, statistics show. As Keith pointed out, two generations back black people couldn't marry!! Obviously a lot has changed as to what is acceptable in our society and many old people have not changed with it unfortunately.
So you think no one should speak their views just because the latest vote says 'this is the way it is'. How can you compare the choosing of a president to the right to marry the person you love? Which one affects you more directly? Maybe you have that right, then good for you.
It strange that you have a problem with him saying what he feels is right. The point and the strength of Democracy is that opinions are always shifting and evolving. If no one ever changed their mind about anything we'd be burning scientists at the stake like witches.
realist, I can only assume that given your closing comment that you must be heterosexual because while this might seem incredibly insignificant to you, it is incredibly significant to me and my partner of 7 years. This vote has a direct effect on my life and the life of my friends, as a gay man, as someone who was born and raised in California, and as a New Yorker who hopes one day that his relationship will be viewed as equally as any relationship you have. It is incredibly important to me and I can and will not move on.

Well spoken opinion on same-sex marriage that addresses the topic from the perspective of human dignity and the heart, rather than politics. Compares the law to restrictions on marriage between blacks and whites.
Regardless of which side of the gay-marriage argument they land on, you can’t deny the eloquence, passion, and intellect with which Keith Olbermann pleads with gay-marriage opponents. He is a straight ally in the true sense of the word. Many major metropolitan areas are organizing protests at their local LDS churches and city halls. Many [...]
