The best rainbow I sawall afternoon was the one that showed up shortly before sunset. It wasn't on a float or a kite or a banner or a string of balloons. This was the real thing-a huge, glorious rainbow stretched in front of Houston's skyline, over the field where the last few pride diehards had gathered in the mud, a la Woodstock, to eke out a few last moments of community celebration. We burst into spontaneous applause and cheers, hun- dreds of us with our heads back, gazing skyward. God was there, and he was say- ing he was having a good time. Seeing it made me feel like all of you ~i were there, too. You would have thought that by this time we'd have all been exhausted from putting the float together most of the night before and Sunday morning, but we all got energy from some unknown source. Maybe we were revived spending the day surrounded by gays and lesbians who, even if for just a few hours, felt collectively empowered enough to hold their lover's hand in the light of day, and to come together without fear, state proudly who they were and what they believed in. Even if just for a few hours. You should have been there. While we were putting the float together late Saturday night, someone came in and said the U.S. had just bombed Iraq. I thought it was a joke. And then when I found out why, it stopped being funny. Oh, of cou rse it's a very serious offense to plot to threaten the life of a former president, or anyone else for that matter. I just don't remember George Bush jumping up and spending all kinds of money and man- power in a big, immediate, dramatic re- sponse when your lives were being threat- ened. Difference is, in your cases it turned out to be more than just a threat.
