Soapbox!

I believe I said before regarding the passing of Prop. 8, that we should continue the Christian Right's mandate of "protecting marriage" by banning divorce. Well, let's sign the petition and get it going:

Eduardo Verástegui: Douche


Yeah, Eduardo Verástegui’s pretty, but he’s also pushing for Yes on Proposition 8. Well, he certainly is a pretty looking bigot isn’t he? You know, I think he deserves a Spank Bank for being so pretty—in fact, I’m not even going to bank him… I’m going to look into his eyes and say “I do.” That’s right, Eduardo, I’m gay-marrying you in my dreams! And you’ll like it. Take that, bigot.


I would also like to add that in our “marriage” he’s a power bottom who can’t get enough of taking it up the ass. I hear the homophobes have problem with being thought of as liking the back door action, so I’m going to piss him off as much as he pisses me off. Speaking of… Did I mention he’s a piss-pig, too? (Um… did I cross a line? Was that too much? Well, it’s not enough for him—he loves the Golden Shower!)


To all you gay boys out there, your mission is to imagine Eduardo shirtless and then I want you to J.O. to the picture. Yes, it will be a struggle, but you can combat this bigotry with the tools that God gave us as gay men: Sarcasm… no, wait I mean fashion first. No. Damn, it’s on the tip of my tongue… Oh, yes: our ability to fall for the worst guys in the world, which is exactly what that douche Eduardo Verástegui is: the worst.

For you straight guys out there, your mission is to imagine Eduardo shirtless, too… but he throws like a girl.

Thus endeth the rant…

Vote No on 8 and support love and oppose bigotry.

I Don't Fucking Believe This Shit

I got an email from my sister-in-law this morning regarding Proposition 8 in California, which is trying to define marriage as between a man and a woman, denying gay marriage in the state.

Here is her email:

Hey Chris have you seen the ads for yes on 8? Do you know the facts about this? Do you know if there are intentions to follow this all up with education in schools if the law is changed? Also did you hear about the "field trip" to the 1st grade teacher's wedding officiated by S.F. Mayor? What do you think about all that? I just don't think taxpayers money for schools should be put toward a field trip like this. There is so much curriculum for the schools to cover that there is not enuf time as it is! We need to raise our test scores!! Anyway .....I really do believe in No on 8 ....but I just don't feel I can trust what will happen after this if it passes!!! What is next on the agenda in your opinion?
waffling,
M.


"Waffling"? Seriously? This is a woman with an MBA from Santa Clara University. I thought she was smarter than this... well, she does was FOX "News". Here is my lengthy and tart reply (mind you, this is the severely tempered-down version. I removed a lot--but not all--of "fucks"):

Hold onto your hat, I’m going to rant…

The law the Yes on 8 people are trying to pass WILL DENY GAYS THE RIGHT TO MARRY. THAT’S IT. That’s the law they want to pass. Nothing more is written other than that. If that’s what you want, then fine. Fuck it. I don’t care anymore. If you are going to believe that bullshit, do what you want. I’m so tired of people making their decisions based on a “they’re coming to get you” scare-tactic commercial.

However, if this passes, I vow two things that I will push to my dying day: 1) I want churches taxed. If they have the money to push this shit, then they should pay taxes like everyone else. The Mormon Church has put several million dollars for TV commercials, if they’ve got that kind of money to spread lies around, then they can pay for libraries and fire departments. 2) I will push for the “defense of marriage” in the exact same way these people have pushed for the “defense of life”: absolutes, i.e. NO DIVORCE. If you choose to marry, you’re stuck with it. End of discussion. If these idiots feel stopping gays from marrying is the way to “defend the sanctity of marriage” great—but then I intend to push them to the outer fucking limits. Incidentally, NO ONE who sponsored the DOMA in Congress was on their first marriage. In fact, two of them were on their third. In fact, I believe Larry “Toe-Tapping in a Minneapolis Airport Bathroom for Sex” Craig was a sponsor of that bill. That’s fucking rich.

So, what’s the issue? Do you not want gays to have the right to marry, or is it that people might actually discuss it? Or are we back on that whole sanctity of marriage bullshit?

Let me ask you, where is the sanctity of marriage in
getting married in your car? Or by an Elvis impersonator? Where is the sanctity of marriage that the Clark County Court House is open 24 hours on the weekend in case people suddenly get the urge to get married and need a wedding license? Where is the sanctity in marriage where 50% of them end in divorce? Where is the sanctity of marriage in Britney Spears 55 hour “oops” marriage? But two men or women that have been together for 55 years can be denied access to hospital visits from family members because they aren’t married. Jesus fucking Christ! This is the world you want—you can have it.

I thought Republicans were for LESS government involvement in our lives? You guys really need to get your shit together on that and quit flip-flopping around when it suits you.

As for the “field trip”—it was THEIR teacher getting married and they wanted to be a part of it. For the teacher, it was a surprise. The class didn't attend the actual ceremony, but waited outside on the steps of City Hall to congratulate their teacher. My God! They congratulated her? The horror, the absolute fucking horror! Next we might not be able to use “gay panic” as a defense for killing a gay man walking down the street. Oh, that’s right, it’s been used
again and again and again

One final question: when you got married did you have to ask everyone in the state if it was okay to marry the guy you loved?

Sorry to rant. but I’ve been dealing with this shit for the last 25 years and my patience is thin having to justify why I should be allowed to openly love the person I’m with, when straight people can get married and divorced on a whim. I’m not mad at you, but disappointed you are so easily swayed by a crappy campaign commercial.

--Chris


No on 8. Give what you can, we need to get the word out to those who don't fucking get it.
