Got Family Values?

Kenneth in the 212  Nov 04 08

As much as I don't think people deserve a pat on the back for acting like human beings, occasionally doing the right thing requires a bigger set of balls than others, so I do want to point out how impressed I am with former NFL great Steve Young and his wife, Barbara, for coming out against Prop 8.
