Glenn Greenwald has more on conservative Clay Christian Ministry sponsoring this madness.  If you want to throw your $5 to Equality for All, go to Better Democrats.

There really are no words.

"Child Abuse" (4.00 / 2)
are the words or phrase that come to my mind after watching this, the fundie equivalent of the Jew hating curricula in some staunch Islamic states.  

Let's note (4.00 / 3)
A week or so ago, a schoolteacher in SF got married. The parents of the kids in the teacher's class decided to bring the teacher's students to the wedding. Just for attending the wedding of their teacher, the kids were featured in a Yes On 8 ad as an example of how gay marriages are coming to eat your children. The mere act of getting married, and the fact that this teacher's students took part in the wedding as if she was a normal human, was presented by Yes On 8 as propaganda aimed at children. And apparently they don't want their own propaganda aimed at children to have any competition...

15 seconds is more than enough (4.00 / 1)
I couldn't watch the whole thing.  Disgusting.

Little Kids, Spreading Hate, (4.00 / 4)
Singing "Yes on Proposition 8,"

With a knick knack paddy whack!

Their parents must be so proud,

Teaching kids to hate out loud!

The irony of having children from a racial minority singing a song advocating intolerance towards another minority group is lost on them as well, I'm sure.


Christian child abuse. (4.00 / 1)
These are 7-year old kids who obviously don't really even know what they're saying, being used for hate-monger propaganda. How low can you go? Check out the "Christian Right" to find out where the SleazeOMeter stands today. This is child abuse bordering on child porn.

I'm no Christian, Amy Sand, but even I know that Jesus would weep to see the filth you've committed in his name. You think you're clay. Most people who see this will think you're more like dirt.

Off topic but I was thinking the other day of way back when Palin had first been announced and we were all speculating about whether or not she would be forced to step down. You and I were among the many saying she was a time bomb.

Anyway, someone remarked (correctly as it turns out) that there was no way they could pull her at this stage and you replied something along the lines, "Please let them keep her on the ticket!"

Just giving you a little recognition in hindsight :-)

it is creepy just like that "sing for change" pro-Obama video (0.00 / 0)
Look folks, don't exploit your children to make campaign commercials for you. Doesn't matter who you support. Bringing the campaigns down to the grade school level is not good for children or the election, it has bad echoes of Hitler Youth and other authoritarian child indoctrination.
