Doris Day - Que Sera, Sera

Obama won, but so did Prop 8. One giant leap forward, one huge step back. But I’m not going to let it get me down today.
No, in defiance of Prop 8 I am going to go the “full gay” and post some Doris Day.
TRUE FACT: On a school trip when I was sixteen, I brought along a Doris Day best of and eventually it ended up on the bus’s sound system. When Que Sera, Sera came on we all sang along. It felt like the gayest Disney movie ever but it was amazing.
A quote from Daniel Shannon - Pretty much right, actually
"Ah, you charming-ass Californians. Protecting the rights of cute little farm animals while throwing yucky sodomites under the train."

Seriously. Is it over? I care but now is about the time to be getting on with it.
This. Fucking. Election.
Seriously.
Going by the impression I get from Yes We Carve, the Barack O’Lantern must have been this year’s #1 most attempted DIY Halloween decoration.
The results are pretty much 50-50. Some are atrocious (see above) while others are pretty good actually.
There’s a Bryan Cranston one, too. LOL
Apple says no to Proposition Hate
No on Prop 8
October 24, 2008
Apple is publicly opposing Proposition 8 and making a donation of $100,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person’s fundamental rights — including the right to marry — should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.
Well done, Apple. I don’t care as much about what you get up to as seemingly everyone else does, but this is great.
A quote from Peaches Christ speaking the truth
"And don’t even get me started on those pro Prop. 8 people. I want to murder them. I never really cared about gay marriage until these assholes decided to take people’s rights away."
What?
A quote from Voting in Kansas
"
I voted today. I’m a 33 year old, white criminal defense lawyer in southwest Kansas. The early voting is at the courthouse. I arrive to find 12 old white people occupying all the voting machines. I wait. A machine opens up. The 80 something white male who had been using the machine is now up at the front table asking if he can vote again. The lady running the table says “no, one person, one vote.” He replies, “well, I just want to make sure we don’t have some terrorist running the country.”
This obviously catches my attention so I look at the old man. Our eyes meet. He points a bony finger at me and says, “Don’t let it happen.” Thinking this old man could one day kill someone and need my services, I don’t say anything and proceed to vote.
As I’m leaving the voting room, the young black janitor is in the hallway in front of the room with his cleaning cart. “Did you do the right thing?” he asks me. “You know it.” I say and we exchange a terrorist fist jab.
"
I always pegged that guy as a crazy baby licker.
Inland GOP mailing depicts Obama’s face on food stamp
Roger e-mailed me this story a little bit ago. I’m worried this craziness is only going to get worse as Election Day approaches. :-(
