South Africa are showing America the way forward.

The parliament of South Africa, a nation still blighted by its history of discrimination through Apartheid, has voted overwhelmingly (230 to 41) in favour of same-sex marriage, making it the first nation in Africa to do so, and only the fifth nation worldwide!

Many same-sex couple there are now happily planning their newly legal nuptuals.

Take note America (and by "American" I mean that idiot Bush!) and learn from this quickly evoloving country and move forward with peace, and not devolve back into a realm of fear and hatred.
Next thing you know he'll legalise slavery again (oh yeah, wasn't there something about minimum wage not too long ago!).
The indications are that the country has learned from its mistakes during the last 2 presidential elections, hopefully they will oust this warmonger's party as soon as possible and allow their formerly wonderful nation to begin a healing process (over this and many other issues) once more.
