The news media should be reporting the facts about what has been contributed and by whom to these campaigns and let the people see the liars for who they really are. These lies need to be exposed!

Unbelievable, but true to form. The facts are right in front of them, and they still lie.

I would like to see an ad that shows a kid being bullied in school because his family is “different”, and have the question asked if this is what you want your child taught in school. Turn it around on them. Those who don’t care one way or another if gays marry need a reason to get off their butts and go vote.

Wealthy gays with unlimited resources my backside. My wife and I both live below the poverty line. Even in my better days I could never be classified as “middle class”, let alone wealthy–and that with multiple jobs and/or substantial overtime. If we’re so wealthy and powerful why don’t we have our rights yet?

Again this reeks of the sort thing that colors anti-Semitism.

Gays/Jews, smaller in number, but somehow extra nefarious due to their “networks of wealth.”

“network of wealthy homosexuals”? Honey, come down to MY apartment, take a walk in MY neighborhood, and look at MY tax returns and MY bank statements, and we’ll see how “wealthy” this donor is.

I donated $5. People can judge all they want but it’s what I can afford, plain and simple. If I had the resources of someone like my parents, I’d donate probably more like $100. The minimum suggested is $35. And I’m guessing a lot of “little” donations are what is making this thing happen.
