Hardly. Considering the divorce rate, we’re perfectly capable of doing that ourselves. We don’t need no help a’tall.
Most of us don’t give a rat’s ass who marries whom, as was supported by a Field Poll last month showing that 55 percent of likely voters are opposed to Prop. 8.
Supporters of the Constitutional amendment have their own poll conducted by Lake Research Partners showing that Prop. 8 is leading by four percentage points.
To further prove their point, supporters of Prop. 8 stand behind and tout voter approval of Prop. 22 in 2000, that defined marriage as between a man and a woman, which was later overturned by the court.
But that was eight years ago, and many minds have broadened and changed since then, realizing the none of our lives have changed because gays can marry in California.
The sun still rises in the east every morning; birds still chirp, dogs still bark; the Earth still rotates on its axis; there are still 365 days in the year except for once every four years to even out Earth’s rotation; all’s right with the world.
Only life for gay couples has changed, and now -- as the worn out joke says -- they can be as miserable as us hetero couples.
Not a clue
Even with anti-Prop. 8 support and fund raising by Ellen DeGeneres, Brad Pitt, Steven Spielberg, other high-profile people and $1 million contributed by the California Teachers Association, I don’t have an inkling of how Prop. 8 will fare at the ballot box.
In a way I hope it passes and gamble that the courts will again put these holier-than-thou, up tight asses in their place once and for all by declaring passage of the Constitutional amendment un-Constitutional!
