Hoist On Their Own Petard

[ciroccoj]

Oh, this is just tooo good.

Came home after a looong day, to find cassatt's lj entry urging people to go vote on legalisation of gay marriage. Apparently the American Family Association, ("America's Pro-Family Online Activism Organization") started a poll, which they will take to Congress, showing Congress what Americans think of gay marriage. There are three choices:

1. I oppose legalization of homosexual marriage and "civil unions"
   
2. I favor legalization of homosexual marriage
   
3. I favor a "civil union" with the full benefits of marriage except for the name

Here's the URL to the poll: http://www.afa.net/petitions/marriagepoll.asp

And here's the URL to check the results: http://www.afa.net/petitions/SummarizePoll.asp

Unfortunately, I can't vote, as it asks for your US state and zip code. But all of you of the American persuasion who can vote... please do! It'll be interesting to see if they really do send the results to Congress :)

And on a completely related note:

Congratulations!

To heathers and lonejaguar, who were married today in Toronto, Ontario. All the best to the two of you - after so many years together yet apart, nobody deserves happiness more :)
