Good quick highlights. I think that a dozen people is a pretty weak protest.

Unless it's Code Pink or NOW. Then the media would multiply them 10x. Hmmm,well, apples and oranges. Hey, was Perez Hilton there? I heard a rumor he was going to be the Grand Marshal, or something, but had to cancel because he was the victim of a hate crime in Toronto. Somebody punched him in the eye. I'm trying to remember: oh, I know what it was. He called the Black Eyed Peas manager that word that's a hate crime to call a gay person. Perez Hilton did this. But I guess he doesn't have to apologize (but maybe he did already, I don't know) because he's gay too. It's like when an African-American calls another African-American that other bad word that white people can't use. Like straight people can't use the gay bad word. Is that it? I think I got it. I'm just trying to be PC. Where's Lenny Bruce when you need him.? He could figure all this out.

Hey!!!

You deleted my comment!!! I thought comments should reflect all points of view, not just your own brand of PC.

Sorry if you don't agree with me, but the majority of your fellow-citizens do not agree with the gay agenda. And marriage? Are you kidding me? People are free to follow their own drummer, but don't ask the rest of us to subsidize their immorality or enshrine their sexual preferences by giving them access to an institution that has existed for millenia.

Perhaps Winston Churchill said it best. "If you are not a liberal by the time you are 20, you have no heart. And if you are not a conservative by the time you are 40, you have no head"...

Lana, Welcome to the world of New West Stalinism. Your first post must have been politically incorrect. They won't stand for that, especially dealing with issues related to the gay agenda. Though it seems your second one is --from their point of view--still unPC. Who knows? Update: Perez Hilton still hasn't apologized. Refuses to. My, my. I'm confused: did he name himself after Paris Hilton or that hotel in Buenos Aires?

I read the comment, Lana, and I don't think it should have been deleted. But that's how "free" speech works now.

What a sweet event to photograph- your pictures capture as many emotions as colors. A job well done!
