Going on the offensive, AT LAST! and with a little of those BLOOMBURG BILLIONS to float around! Good for you Empire State Pride Agenda. I , as a rule, don't say a lot of good things about Todd and his clique.. but this is a smart move.
( the one question he did not answer with " gay marriage" was " are you really going to leave your socks on".. and that is the one that he SHOULD HAVE said gay marriage too!!!)
Truth wins out in the end, and come on , New York is NOT Nevada. ( we kicked them out first...) from this mornings NY Daily News:
"Over the past several months, the group commissioned polls from Boston-based Kiley & Co. in the districts of at least 10 GOP state senators. The group plans to use the results to convince reluctant state lawmakers that voting "yes" on gay marriage is not political suicide. The polling from four Long Island districts obtained by the Daily News shows voters support granting the right to marry to same-sex couples, 52-42%. Support is strongest among women, voters younger than 30 and independents - a key constituency that can make or break tight races".
"Anybody who thinks we're not serious about winning this in 2009 better throw cold water on themselves and wake up," said Alan Van Capelle, executive director of the Empire State Pride Agenda. ( Mr Van Capelle, seen here last week with Bishop Prince Singh )

The majority of New York voters FAVOR marriage equality! A fact that I tried my best, with real numbers to explain to my granite headed Assemblyman. Point in fact.
When "you-know-who" Voldermort (Eliot Spitzer... really, you cant say his name in Albany.. they do the fingers in the ears, LA LA LA thing.. cracked me up) ran for Governor and KICKED BUTT.. he did so by running on full out , say it loud , say it proud GAY MARRIAGE.
When asked: " would you like fries with that Mr. Spitzer? ", his answer was "GAY MARRIAGE".
"how is the weather today , Eliot "... " GAY MARRIAGE". Really, every other word the man said was about marriage equality, and look at what he did:
( the one question he did not answer with " gay marriage" was " are you really going to leave your socks on".. and that is the one that he SHOULD HAVE said gay marriage too!!!) There are just these little pockets of resistance, a few small minded men keeping New York from going forward.
In addition to the poll campaign, a consulting firm that does a lot of business with Mayor Bloomberg is working pro bono to create a pro-marriage equality television ad for the Pride Agenda. My state is different than every other one so far. The people want this to happen and a few bonehead Christianists are keeping it from happening.
Let's hope ESPA can get the word out.
" Sleepers Awake...." ( you Cobbco crowd will LOVE the end of this little BLAST from the past... I had never seen this before)
