God Smites The Gays
No, I’m not kidding. You see, the whole reason for the wildfires out in California have nothing to do with the Santa Ana winds at all, and everything to do with the fact that God hates gays, and he’s not taking it anymore.
Of course, if this is true, God’s timing might be off by a wee bit.
‘No’ on Prop 8 — and ‘No’ on Race-Baiting UPDATE: TAKE ACTION!
UPDATE: More below the fold on what you can do to take action against Proposition 8
I would like to sign on to the following statement from Truth Wins Out:
Truth Wins Out today expressed its grave disappointment in those in the LGBT community who have emulated our bigoted opponents by scapegoating minorities. It has been reported that African Americans have been verbally abused and have had racial epithets hurled at them during Anti-Proposition 8 rallies.
“It is reprehensible to look for scapegoats and target innocent people with vile racial epithets,” said TWO Executive Director, Wayne Besen. “We call on all GLBT people behave intelligently and act responsibly, so we can figure out – together – the best way for our movement to proceed and achieve equality.”
What specifically was Besen referring to?
Sarah Palin, the Non-Judgmental Homophobe
From Think Progress:
Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has said he opposes the Federal Marriage Amendment, which would amend the Constitution to ban marriage equality, because he believes it is an issue to be left up to states. In an interview with CBN’s David Brody, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) broke with McCain and strongly supported the amendment:
PALIN: [I]n my own, state, I have voted along with the vast majority of Alaskans who had the opportunity to vote to amend our Constitution defining marriage as between one man and one woman. I wish on a federal level that that’s where we would go because I don’t support gay marriage. I’m not going to be out there judging individuals, sitting in a seat of judgment telling what they can and can’t do, should and should not do.
Did Palin “Establish Debating Parity” with Joe Biden?
David Brooks thinks she did:
Taking the Fight to November
Jammie Wearing Fool and Macsmind Prove They Either Don’t Understand Polls, or Don’t Understand California
So when a good friend asks if I wanna join a fight, and we’re on the same side of that fight, you bet I’m in. Especially when the topic at hand is as close to my heart as gay marriage.
California Supreme Court Overturns Gay Marriage Ban
This is just coming and I haven’t seen the decision yet but this is a step in the right direction.
UPDATE: You can see the opinion here. It was a 4-3 vote. Most promising for changing attitudes regarding gay marriage is that 3 of the 4 justices in the majority were appointed to the bench by Republicans.
