today's rally at deering oaks to repeal don't ask don't tell was great. i know there was a big turn out because of the special guest, lady gaga herself. but it quickly became much more than that. veterans who were discharged after someone found out they were gay told their stories and a few people from congressed rallied for our support. it was very moving and i wont lie, i got choked up. lady gaga's speech was more than just a celebrity endorsement. you could tell she was speaking from the heart and meant what she said. to her 'equality is the prime rib of american' and 'everyone should be able to wear their own meat dress'. but my favorite was 'if you don't like it, go home'.
chellie! love her!
