Vote "No" on 2 in TX
Welp, those Texans are out to show how much they dislike gay people again with a proposition on their fall ballot to reserve "marriage" for mixed couples, and the "no" people and the "yes" people are setting out to see who can spend the most on emotionally appealing television commercials.
I particularly liked this moment from one of the "no" commercials (i.e., that would be my vote and the vote of all other kind, loving people who value good relationships):
Ron and Mary Jo Dupre, parents of two gay sons, appear in another commercial. Mr. Dupre, a retired oil and gas operator and financier, describes himself as a "a typical redneck" whose first reaction upon learning about his sons was, "What did I do wrong?"
"I didn't do anything wrong" he says he realized.
In another spot, Ms. Dupre says, "I did not expect my daughter-in-law to be named Jeff, but I love him."
