This is the best speech I've heard in many moons, beating anything any of the candidates for Prez were able to crank out. All those diatribes aimed at Dubya have sharpened Keith's presentation skills, and he has put them to very good use here. He's is impassioned about the gay marriage issue and incensed that Californians have voted to delegitimize same-sex marriage by passing Proposition 8. As a "race traitor" myself, having married outside of the white tribe, what Keith says about the cruel restrictions that were imposed on hetrosexual marriage in the US (well, it is a very backward nation in so many ways!) within living memory certainly hit home with me. Let's let adults of sound mind marry whoever they want to and, once they've made their bed, let them lie in it. And I hope I'm not aping the Contrarian by saying that if that offends the religious, that's just one more mark in its favor.

“The enemies of intolerance cannot be tolerant." • "If it is an offense to justice to hold people who may have been victims of mistaken identity or of vendettas by other factions, then it is also an offense to justice to release psychopathic killers who believe that they have divine permission to throw acid in the faces of girls who want to attend school." • "Don't be such a lesbian! ”
