And I'm not saying that to be snarky, I'm actually curious as to how you'd respond to being asked to do that.

I'd do the job I was paid to do and work a bit harder on the No on 8 campaign on my time off.

I worked for the City of Irvine for 10 years. During that time, we had 3 very different mayors that had their own political agendas. As a COI employee, I had to follow their direction and that of the City Manager because it was my job. That included censoring artwork - a practice I am incredibly opposed to on a personal level. But, that was the nature of my job as an employee.

Now, what I did OFF the clock, was my own choice (however, I DID have to be careful about what sort of public political activities I was involved in.)
