Please Vote Tomorrow (especially No on Prop 8)
November 3rd, 2008
I’m not normally a vocal political person, but I just wanted to temporarily get off-topic here for a moment thanks to Google. Don’t worry, political rants are not exactly my thing, so this won’t be a regular feature.
Google’s adsense has been feeding ‘yes on prop 8′ ads through many blogs, including mine. I have requested a block on these ads and am waiting for it to take effect. My reponse is to paste a bigger ‘No on 8′ button front and center and remove my sidebar ads until after the election. So nyah nyah!
If Prop 8 passes it will remove rights from our state constitution that have recently been affirmed by our State Supreme Court. It will undo years of work that has been done to further equal rights, maintain separation of church and state, and remove government intrusion into our private lives.
So, go out and vote tomorrow. If you’re in California, please check off ‘No’ next to Prop 8 so that we can live in a state that doesn’t write intolerance, discrimination, and religious beliefs into its Constitution.

These hate mongering Mormons came in to California to spew their hate and bigotry, knowing that the Supreme Court does not allow hate moners to volte to take away people’s rights. It was a symbolic act of hate, paid for by tax-free money.
