Vote NO on Proposition 8


Attention all California Dust Bunnies. In just a few weeks we will all go to the polls to vote for president and other elected offices. But in California, you will also be voting on whether or not to PROHIBIT gays and lesbians from legally getting married - as they/we are currently. If this law passes, it will amend the California Constitution to PROHIBIT two people who love each other and want to commit to each other from doing so. It will make DISCRIMINATION the law of the land in California by inserting discriminatory language into the state constitution.

I AM ASKING ALL OF YOU WHO LIVE IN CALIFORNIA TO VOTE NO ON PROPOSITION 8. Please tell your friends - this is so very important in the movement toward equality for all.

Both sides have been mobilizing and fundraising for and against Prop 8. The Mormon Church has come out swinging to pass this amendment, and has instructed its 770,000 California church members to vote yes and end gay marriage in the state. At last count, the pro-discrimination forces have out-raised us, $17 million to $11 million. Brad Pitt recently kicked in $100,000 for the NO ON 8 campaign - and gay millionaire and former Mormon Bruce Bastian donated $1 million to help offset some of the efforts of his former church. But in the end, we will probably lose the money battle - so we MUST make sure everyone who believes in equality votes NO ON PROP 8 on Election Day.

If you live in California (and even if you don't) CLICK HERE and sign the pledge to vote NO ON PROPOSITION 8.

I promise EXTRA FUNNY RECAPS, AND EXTRA HOT HOTTIES if my Cali Dust Bunnies come through! Dust Bunnies EVERYWHERE are counting on you!!

XOXOXOXO
