I don't think she's saying that "Senator Davis and her colleagues' and supporters' courage in Texas and the victories of overturning DOMA's Section 3 and Prop 8's death are more important than the loss of the Voting Rights Act." She's saying that jumping in when and where someone says "Hooray for Sen Davis!" and going "Yeah but what about VRA?" is harshing their squee. She's acknowledging that each of these is a battle, not the war, but wanting to be able to celebrate the battles won. "Tomorrow we will pick up our shovels again. Give us one damn day to cheer."
