Often called "the most popular person in California politics," U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein has participated in a tough advertisement as part of the campaign to defeat Proposition 8, the constitutional amendment that would eliminate the right to marry for same-sex couples in California if passed by the voters on November 4.
The text of the ad, which is available at http://www.noonprop8.com/feinsteinad is
"In my lifetime, I've seen discrimination. And I see it again in Proposition 8. Proposition 8 would be a terrible mistake for California. It changes our Constitution. Eliminates fundamental rights. And treats people differently under the law.
"Proposition 8 is not about schools or our kids. It's about discrimination and we must always say NO to that.
"No matter how you feel about marriage, vote against discrimination.
"And vote NO on 8."
It's quite an effective piece. Please donate money to the MadProfesssah.com EQUALITY FOR ALL Match by clicking on the thermometer on the right of this page to assure that we can have it run on television as much as possible in the last few days of the campaign.
We are still not at 50% yet of our goal of raising $1000 directly to the NO ON PROP 8 campaign. Can't YOU help with $5 or $10 or $25 today to support equality for all and defeat Proposition 8?
Shocked at this, but, then again, I'm still trying to figure out why she is so "popular" considering she hasn't done too much for the state in the past 4 years or so and is more GOP than anything else.
