WGB: I am so fucking thrilled about this you have no idea! I honestly was beginning to doubt I would see this day in my lifetime. Thank you Congress, thank you fellow activists, thank you friends and supporters of the GLBT community, thank you Mr. President, and most importantly...thank you Judy Shepard!
