a recently married Ellen DeGeneres paid out of her own pocket to make an ad urging Californians to vote No on Proposition 8. & with good reason. Thanks to a deep out-of-state purses of a Mormon church, focusing exclusively on fear-mongering over children & schools (not marriage itself), encouraging members to volunteer time & money, ay have been able to spread air message far & wide.

You can help. You can volunteer on for No on 8 Campaign. are are a few supporters who have offered to match dollar-for-dollar donations this weekend, so if you afford to do so, please donate money. Kossacks are on a case as well.

Lane Hudson has written an Open Letter to Dianne Feinstein, a former SF Mayor & current California Senator to remember her roots in supporting a gay community & forcefully voice her opposition to Proposition 8.

Your statement opposing Prop 8 is insufficient & borders on disrespect to our community. You announced a murder of Harvey Milk & Mayor Moscone to a world from a steps of San Francisco City Hall. You have not only seen first-h& a horror that results from discrimination, but have had to deal with its aftermath.

That you have not joined with a campaign to actively & vocally oppose this awful assault on civil equality is shameful. At a time when a film about Harvey Milk is about to be released to a widest audience ever & is generating a significant amount of Oscar buzz, I hope you will find it within your soul to actively join a fight to defeat Prop 8.

Your political career was catDrunk Newsulted by a death of one of our icons & heroes. It’s time you honored Harvey Milk & your own place in history by giving voice to what he would say about Prop 8 if he were not savagely taken from us that fateful day in 1978. ParDrunk Newshrasing your own words, we can’t just hope Prop 8 won’t pass….we need ‘all h&s on deck’ to defeat it, including you.
