I mean, they must have spent some dough to show it during the Olympics for CA viewers...

Totally!

I'm really interested to see where else it shows up. Are they going for the children badgering their parent demographic by having it on ABCFamily?

Now I'm glad I quit that penny-ante organization Love Honor Cherish, aren't you, GC?


Where do we sign up for Let CalifOrnia Ring? And will they have cuter boys there?

Hallmark's jumping on the bandwagon :)

Most states don't recognize gay marriage — but now Hallmark does.

The nation's largest greeting card company is rolling out same-sex wedding cards — featuring two tuxedos, overlapping hearts or intertwined flowers, with best wishes inside. “Two hearts. One promise,” one says.

Can someone direct me to the wording of Prop 8? It needs to be a scholarly or recognized media source (wikipedia and ballotpedia don't count). I found a ballot prop/initiative database but it doesn't list 8.

Accessible from the California Secretary of State's web site.

Link to the specific text. But here's the entire text:

Section 7.5 Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in the California.

By the way, the docs on that page are draft copies and may change before election day.

I thought the wording WAS changed?

It was. Previously the text was:

"We don't want none of dem homos gettin' hitched in Caleefornyu."

No, the title (which is the discretion of the Secretary of State, so long as it is accurate) was changed after the state supreme court allowed same sex marriages.

The title now in place ("Eliminates Right of Same-Sex Couples to Marry") was listed as Limit on Marriage when the petitions were approved. A recent court ruling sided with the secretary of state.
