Barack Obama...to vote down Prop 8?
The other day I was strolling along the strip towards the doughnut shot when I happened to gaze into a store front and came face to face with Barack Obama!
Well, actually, it was a life-size cardboard cut-out of the Presidential hopeful.
I hope that was not a hint, at what is to come, by the way.
After all, American voters need a leader with depth and substance right now.
Obama supporters have set up shop in a comfy space (at Crescent Heights and Santa Monica) with the specific aim of signing up voters - and ultimately - tooting Barack's horn.
Gosh, those gay boys sure know how to decorate on a budget, don't they?
What struck me most about the temporary camp for "The One" was a sign hanging smack dab in the middle of the squeaky-clean picture glass window.
"Vote No on 8"
Does that mean that Barack is supporting the gay community in their cat fight with religious fundamentalists and Evangelicals over the right to marry in the State of California?
Personally - I thought one of the good things about being gay - was that you didn't have to get hitched.
But - for those who pine for the security, comfort, and equal status in the community that tying the knot brings - I'll ask it flat out:
Obama are you going to put out the word with all your supporters that they should Vote No on Proposition 8?
A simple "yes" or "no" to this post will suffice!
Or, are you afraid that if you're caught mingling with homos, Palin's camp might spread a rumor that - in addition to being a "terrorist" - you're a commie fag as well?
Do tell!
