Awesome
I cannot think of a good title for this that doesn't involve me being completely blown away
Best quotes, in my opinion:
Everywhere we look, the visible spectrum is rainbows. this cannot be natural...we all know, this is not something that happened twenty years ago...
We as a nation have got to ask ourselves what the hell is going on.
This made me smile
Leaving aside the (in my opinion) sorta sappy music, and the (pretty low-key) corporate sponsorship, this made me quite happy.

10 reasons gay marriage will ruin our society
In celebration of the ruling on gay marriage in California, here is a list (which I found here and traced back to here from here which evidentally got it from a forum...sorry I can't attribute the original author) expressing why this is actually a big problem.
- Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
- Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
- Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
- Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
- Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
- Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.
- Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
- Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.
- Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
- Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.
Seriouslybig congratulations to you gay and lesbian folks out there in California, and here's hoping this starts a big wave of change across the nation. Cheers!
