I'll be very disappointed if she doesn't cry.
UPDATE: an interesting side note to the Proposition 8 issue is that many, many Hollywood celebrities donated money to fight against it (including, sad to say, my directorial hero Mr Spielberg. It's funny how much of a gay rights supporter he is, yet off the top of my head I can't recall any of his movies featuring as much as one gay character.) But one prominent figure who did not donate was Rosie O'Donnell. This has caused some people to be less than charitable towards her (from the previous link):
i've lost completel respect for rosie, not that i've really had any for her to begin with. not opening her fat hyprocritcal mouth probably helped the no on 8 cause... lol.The LA Times gives a good summary of the whole Proposition 8 story, which basically is one of gay activists never accepting the majority opinion of the electorate.
Steve,
ReplyDeleteHave you seen this hysterical (& hysterically funny) anti-Proposition 8 advertisment might amuse you.(HT Crunchy Cons). Yes, apparently a vote for Proposition 8 is a vote for a Mormon theocracy. This response is so hysterical I can't help but think it must a sign of latent Mormonism - secretly they nurse the desire to go door to door evangelizing, live a caffeine free lifestyle, and wear the magic Mormon underwear.
Bloody hell they took the video away - here is another copy http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=ps2NpihrbZE
ReplyDeleteIt's weird, isn't it. It looks like a parody in the middle, but the beginning and end indicate that it isn't.
ReplyDeleteThey should have had a bishop there too, going through the ladies' "smalls". (Or maybe there is another one with a bishop going through the drawers of a couple of guys.)
It would have made the lives of those of us whose legal sex is debateable rather better off though.
ReplyDeleteAs it is, because there is no legal definition of "man" and "woman" in the constitution, they're already talking about having to institute chromosome tests and physical exams, like the Olympics, in order to comply.
