Tuesday Is Critical!!

Tuesday, the American people will have a chance to start a new era of honesty and decency. They have a chance to elect a man who will be a credit to America, unlike Palin, McCain, or the on-his-way-out Bush. If the Republicans are not voted out, this country will travel further along a path that I believe decent Americans do not wish to.

Voters in California are being given a chance to say "no" to bigotry and hate--by defeating Prop 8. The Religious Right is all up in arms about the right of LGBT people to legally marry.Seriously, I don't get it. Canada has had same sex marriage for several years now and Canada, to the best of my knowledge, is still there. California is not going to slide into the ocean, nor will there be divine retribution if LGBT people are given the basic human right to marry and have families of their own. I urge all Californians to vote against Prop 8, thus ensuring a resounding defeat for the forces of hate and prejudice.

You can count on my NO vote. Talk about discrimination. I don't get it, either...
I like your blog, keep it up. It actually has a point, unlike most, including mine.

About 11,000 same-sex couples have been married in California in the past 3-4 months that it has been legal. From my observation, California is still in one piece! I feel that it doesn't matter what you say or how you define the argument, some people are not willing to listen or realize that this is about HUMAN rights and religion needs to be left out of it.
