At the time (maybe 8-9 years ago), I was like "Wow, that is the opposite of a real thing, but it sounds fabulous." Now it's a real thing.

Only it isn't an attack on America; it's more like a passionate defense.

The +2-3% pro-LGBT shift per year is really good news. We could only count on +1%/year in the PCUSA as a denomination overall.

I am so glad to have Somali-Americans as part of the DFL. (And as part of my city and community.)
