[jyoung]

I'm surprised Hollywood didn't have Head of State 2 ready to go this weekend.

I guess they just couldn't find anyone to replace Bernie Mac.

When is election day?

The republican elections were yesterday, but the democratic election is today. That's what my email said. I'm going to vote on lunch break.

srsly why are we putting civil rights to a popular vote.

I don't know if marriage is a civil right, at least it shouldn't be. Marriage is a religious/spiritual ceremony, and gay or straight it shouldn't have anything to do with government to begin with.

ironically obama turnout in the black and latino communities probably carried prop 8

i really don't see how the right to marry is a civil right - and i agree that government shouldn't be involved in it anyway

i think the gay community would be better served by pushing marriage-equivalent civil unions instead of slamming itself into a wall over the word "marriage" (though i personally have no problem with it)

I guess the gov't has to be involved for the inevitable gay divorces that will follow "marriage" or "civil union" being legalized and the accompanying asset splits that will be determined, legally.
