Patricks march in Gay Pride parade

In a ringing celebration, tens of thousands lined Boston's streets for today's annual Gay Pride parade, a festive march that featured Governor Deval Patrick and his 18-year-old daughter Katherine, who this week announced she is a lesbian. The Patrick family, including First Lady Diane Patrick, drew resounding applause as they marched along Beacon Street past the State House to City Hall. Patrick, who already enjoyed strong support among gays and lesbians for his strong support for gay marriage, has been hailed as a model of parental acceptance for his unconditional support for his daughter.

We need a few more SMART politicians to do the same! Whether or not they be a good Republican, Democrat, and or an Independent !!!

Agreed, pity too many politicians will be thinking of their far right voters and not admit that they have little problems with those of us in the GLBT community. Hell, they are too afraid to admit that they have family members who are gay, or that they themselves might be gay.
