All I can say is bless her heart! Being in CA, I'm sick of all the prop 8 propaganda they're spreading on TV. I'm glad the SAG took a stand.

Good for them! If people want to get married, I say let them! I don't care, it makes no difference to my life. Hey in Canada married couples pay WAY more taxes than single people so if they want to make the legal commitment and pay just like everyone else then let them! My stepsister is a Lesbian and I know her mother cried when it was legalized in Canada because she didn't think she would ever get to see the day that her daughter got married.

As Ellen says....."Don't spread hate, No on prop 8!"

Yay! I love Emily. She's very much a democrat, and i think thats awesome! We too, in florida have amendment 2 which is the same thing, so all the Bones florida residents, vote NO on Amendment 2!!! Follow Emily's lead!!!!

I'm too young to vote but, I hope that prop. 8 gets voted out. Eric Millegan is gay, and I wish him and all of the other gay/lesbian people out there all the luck that prop. 8 is voted no.

does anyone know how this ended up? Our Amendment 2 was "too close to call" But we have a lot of right wing "christians" who want to spread hate in the name of God. If prop 8 passes, does that mean Gays can still marry in California?

If prop 8 passes it means they CAN'T get married.

Oh and WOOHOO for Barrack Obama winning last night. I'm a Canadian and I was crying. I wish our politics moved me that much. I'm glad that I was able to watch a part of history.

Bella

Sadly, it passed.

haha Bella be careful all the crazy republicans who are mad about McCain losing want to hop the border into your territory. Don't let it happen, see who they put in office for 8 years and where it led us. Band together up there and keep the crazies out. They can go to Mexico... Unless the Mexicans hate us too, which wouldn't surprise me one bit.

As far as prop 8 goes, I know it meant that if it passes they won't be allowed to get married. But I was asking how it came out? I know obama won California so theres a lot of democrats there, so i was wondering how it turned out.

WHAT?! Nooooo! thats horrible! Thats terrible!!!!!!!!! Well Theres still Massachusetts, they have some brains at least.

This is tragic. But we know Emily was a smart voter.

Seriously, I am SO dissapointed in the Canadian system right now....we have Stephen Harper, who is a complete nutjob, and was buddies with Bush. We've had three elections in five years and hardly anything has changed. What a waste of taxpayers money. At least in the states EVERY vote counts, in Canada it's kind of a waste of time for the western provinces to vote, because between Ontario and Quebec they have the majority of the seats anyways. I hate politics up here, but I do love that we are socially liberal.

Bella

Oh and you can keep the crazy republicans, I hate them!! Haha, I actually agree with 'communism' as a pure idea, I support universal health care, and affordable education for all. I think what has happened in the states is unfortunate. I support soldiers but NOT the war. I hate that Canada is even involved in Afghanistan even though it is a NATO mission. I don't think we should be looking for someone who may or may not be dead, and it isn't the Afghanistan people who are at fault. Bush created an illegal war and if it was any other leader in the world, they would be pulled in front of the world court for crimes against humanity. Just like Vietnam, another completely ILLEGAL war. I never understood his thought process. I think it's kind of funny that whenever the United States votes in a Republican president you can pretty much bet on a war being started, and then the Democrats have to come in and fix it all. Oh well, let's see how this goes, and I can't wait to see the progress that happens with Obama behind the wheel, 'cause at least he's sane.

Haha, well Palin and McCain won in Alaska, HAHA, they can all stare at Russia together!!

Ok, so I'm watching CNN and apparently, the california results are "unclear" I have no idea what that means, but it's not a decisive "passed", so I'm happy for the No crowd (which includes me, even though I can't vote). I guess the fight's not over, but at least it wasn't the same as 2006 were the ban quite clearly passed in the ballot.

Whatever the case, this country has ways to go w/r/t this subject. I know being a foreigner my opinion only counts for so much, but I do wish for a happy resolution to this matter.

I mean, look at Spain, y'all. They passed Gay Marriage, Catholic Majority and all, and the country's still there.

Canada passed Gay Marriage, and guess what....mine doesn't mean any less! Oh and we didn't explode, nor did the devil show up and steal all our souls!!
