Who elects these people?
A few weeks ago our mayor announced his support for the gay community in the po-dunk town of Spartanburg, SC. He's done a lot to progress the city since he's been in office and his really trying to make this town less of a redneck filled, hatemongering of a place to live. Apparently, there is still a lot of issues people have as Council woman Linda Dogan's friendly, Christian inspired love themed rant to the gays shows in this video. I'm sure you'll be seeing this on Colbert or Stewart.
