Keith Olbermann's powerful Special Comment on the passing of Proposition 8

Tonight Keith Olbermann, whose history of supporting gay people and gay causes has made him a favorite around here for some time, spoke directly at those people in California and beyond who voted in favor of Proposition 8 or who continue to stand in opposition to same-sex marriage.

It's easily the most passionate, articulate, and moving comment I've seen in this whole Prop 8 mess, and it comes from a man who has zero personal investment in any kind of gay rights movement, which he makes clear early on. He's just a man who believes in decency and in giving love a chance in a world where the odds against its survival are already great enough.

After the break you can watch the entire comment. And I definitely recommend that you do.
