$\"Gravatar\"$ I fought No on 9 and No on 13, both anti-OCA campaigns in Oregon in 1992 and 1994.

Now Oregon has passed a statewide domestic partnership/civil union bill, and I do not think the OCA is much of a threat today.

But it's good to know our history, because otherwise we are condemned to appreciate it.

$\"Gravatar\"$ I posted this for a reason, which I will describe (a little bit) in another post a little bit later -- a bit of mystery, but it has to do with a story breaking tomorrow.

$\"Gravatar\"$ Thanks for posting this, Mike! I seem to remember this story gets a mention in 'Queer in America' as well ..

$\"Gravatar\"$ Aww Yes, Lon Mabon. I think of him every time we drive past the \"Brooks\" exit on our way up to Portland. Rest assured Lon and his followers haven't given up the \"good fight\". They haven't stopped demonizing homosexuals.

And they fought hard against allowing Domestic Partnerships in Oregon. Trying to force it on the ballot because Oregonians already voted no to same sex marriage and they figured Oregonians would vote no to Domestic Partnerships. Luckily they didn't get enough signatures and our Democratic Governor signed a bill allowing gays to have Domestic Partnerships which gives them pretty much all of the benefits a married couple gets.

Fortunately, only the fringe seems to be listening, and they are outnumbered. So they spend their days plotting against us evil gays. Sigh, what an existence.....

$\"Gravatar\"$ I think Ron in Texas should move to Oregon so he can help Lon Mabon focus on whats really important in this state. Protecting innocent people from homosexuals....

$\"Gravatar\"$ I spent a certain amount of time in Oregon in 2000, esp. Portland, and thought that they were fairly sophisticated people outside of the
crazoids in the interior. Never knw where those religious persecutors will show up. i know that a lot of people were moving to Bend and places like that interior, and thereis the town that has the world's bigest Rodeo. I thought that was sort of campy . Guess not. The Bears and marmots are friendly in the Trees.
Have to remember that they are near Idaho with all the insane white supremicists and such
All of the Republicans have been digging them out iof the wood piles, and taking advantage of their crazy ness

$\"Gravatar\"$ My, they do give us good coverage in NZ.

Here's an account of Palin's Pentecostals and their penchant for burning books.

Amazing how the runner-up to Ms. Skanky Alaska has turned into a prophet of God's missions on earth and been so well received by the conservative Republican flock.

$\"Gravatar\"$ This is a very disturbing trend.

America is really turning into a Christo-Fascist country. These Christian Reconstructionists are evil human beings who wrap their hate and bigotry into the Bible which is nothing but b.s. tales.

Have I told you today how much I hate these right-wing Christo-Fascists people and their fake religion?
