Same-sex couples have been getting married in California for many months now. Over 10,000 couples, in fact. And guess what? The sky didn’t fall, the apocalypse didn’t happen, not even so much as a plague of locusts! It’s harmless! And hey, gay people are people too! In this time filled with so much mistrust and hatred, if two people love each other and want to commit to each other, then we should encourage that, not take their rights away.
Prop 8 is about eliminating a fundamental right to marry for gays and lesbian couples, some of whom have been together for many years. They are our friends, our neighbors, our co-workers and maybe even our family members. State law should not single out anyone to be treated differently under the law. We should not vote to eliminate these fundamental rights. Keep marraige legal for all couples.

Newsweek magazine did a little detective work and found out how many cars John and Cindy McCain have: 13. Yes, you read that right. Some are foreign cars and some are American made, even though he has publicly stated that he only has American vehicles. Barack and Michelle Obama, on the other hand, have just one car, a Ford Escape hybrid.
John McCain (aka McSame, aka Bush 44) thinks you are stupid. That is the only explanation I can figure. He is all over the media with his “Maverick” talk, yapping about how he will bring change to Washington and reform things and shake things up. But NEWS FLASH!!!! It is HIS PARTY that has been running things the past eight years. Duh! He voted with George Bush 90% of the time. (Last year it was 95%). Ooooh, really shaking things up there John, aren’t we? Not!! If he ever was a “maverick”, those days were over long long ago. Nowdays he is just more of the same. If you want change he is so not the real thing.
