Day Without A Gay
About a year ago there was a movie with that hottie tottie John Stamos called The Wedding Wars. In it, John is a gay wedding planner who is planning his brother's wedding, well the brother is a senator or something and decides gays shouldn't be married so John sets out to get all the people worked up and there is a gay rights revolt with gays walking out of their jobs and going on strike. I thought it was great... though there was also a movie a few years called "A Day Without Mexicans" which was similar and there was the real life day all the immigrant workers took the day off to protest to show how valuable they were..Well now the Jointheimpact.com people are putting together a true to life strike - thanks also in part to straight writer Joel Stein in an article in the LA Times and he went so far as to get Kathy Griffen to be the spokeswhore for it... So here is the latest:
The worldwide media attention surrounding our massive grassweb efforts for gay rights has been tremendous. Join the Impact was a HUGE success and will continue to thrive because of our efforts. We've reacted to Prop 8 with anger, with resolve, and with courage.NOW, it's time to show America and the world how we love. Gay people and our allies are compassionate, sensitive, caring, mobilized, and programmed for success. A day without gays
would be tragic because it would be a day without love.
