Leave it to the California Kearns to find a way to exclude gay marriage without breaking the law.

It makes me want to cry.

<<"since we all know that 86 out of every 100 of us are Christians who believe in God, we at Kieffe and Sons Ford wonder why we don't just tell the other 14% to sit down and shut up.">>

Nice.

On the one hand, at least the ban is applied evenly. On the other hand, "bureaucraic weenie" definitely describes that clerk. And then hiding from the firestorm? Whatever.

Yeah, the problem is I have to be deputized by the county clerk in each county. Something tells me that won't be happening in Kern.

Should be able to attend the meeting next Tuesday.

Yeah, well, who the fvck wants to get married in Tehachapi anyway?

Ok, I'm going to next Tuesday's meeting.

They need straight women, so it's a good thing EH1812 will be there. Now, we just need some people of color, hopefully some straight Latino men or something like that.

Why, are you trying to recreate the Village People?

Awesome, Tuesday is my normal "program" meeting, but I will bugger out on it next week so that I can do the marriage meeting. There is also a June 29 Pool Party fundraiser if any LoT folks would like to attend.

FYI for other folks who want to get involved, there are other activities/groups that are doing things like phonebanking and stuff -- here's a forward of an email I got:

Members of Love Honor Cherish –

Here are some things you can do between meetings:

TONIGHT – Thursday, June 12 – there is a Town Hall meeting on gay marriage at the Gay & Lesbian Center (Village, 1125 McCadden, just north of Santa Monica Blvd). All of the movement people will be attending.

EVERY THURSDAY – there is Voter ID phone banking in Silverlake, by Equality for All (calling people and asking them if they support us.) Time: 630 to 915pm. Email Hannah at hannah@eqca.org in advance and tell her your FULL NAME, PRIMARY PHONE NUMBER, EMAIL, and the date you want to phone bank. They will respond to confirm.

SUNDAY, JUNE 29 – the film Mike Roth and I made about same-sex marriage in Massachusetts will be shown for FREE at All Saints Episcopal Church, Pasadena. Reception 5:30, Screening at 6:30, panel discussion to follow (which I am on!) It’s a great motivator and this is a rare chance to see it (no, it’s not on DVD).

Meeting details?

It's a hike from the OC, so I'm not sure if I can make it.
