I thought it was funny - made me smile . . . .
Those who were really involved in the effort in CA (and I have a hunch very few posting here were) loved the graphic. It just made us laugh because it captured the way we felt.
It was done by a volunteer in Orange County and caught on quickly.

Disregarding all of our personal feelings on Prop 8, I think that one of the impacts seems to be that many church members came together for a cause, worked very hard to accomplish something that most thought was improbable, and faced a lot of opposition. All these things will tend to bring people together and strengthen the bonds between them. This may prove to be one of the strongest long-term impacts of the effort. SU feels there will be others, of a negative nature, and he may be right for all I know. You could make the argument that, even if Prop 8 is overturned in the courts and never has an impact legally, it has had a great impact on the California members.

Thank you for the compliment. But I'm just a bit younger......but I do approve of the message. And it won in CA, AZ and FL. Good does prevail some of the time.

If you're referring to the protests then I doubt there are many here who approve. I don't think the protesters are representative of the no on 8 movement as a whole anyway. I've had 2 lesbian co-workers tell me they were embarrassed to think I might associate them with that behavior.

I suppose some folks like to point to such behavior as some sort of vindication; i.e., hard evidence that Satan is on the other team. That is neither fair nor accurate. http://www.sacbee.com/101/story/1382472.html Quote:

Still waiting too.... And no I don't have a problem with people protesting...it's their right to peaceably assemble...and that's not what I'm talking about.
