Take the Pledge
I'm not really thinking about leaving the country or anything, but it's nice to know the option is available. I'm really not thinking about leaving; I just thought this was kind of funny.
I did find Lisa's comments here and here to be pretty inspiring (thanks, Cynthia!).

So I browsed the profiles, but didn't see anyone worth moving to Canada for.

I honestly didn't look beyond the first four or five profiles. Found it amusing and/or scary that most of the people who posted appeared to be US citizens trying to escape BushCo.

I don't know how to respond to all this either. Let me get it straight, though. According to the polls if two people of the same sex want to get married--that's immoral, but the death of 100,000 civilians is not a moral issue. Hmmm...wrong is right, backward is forward, and, most importantly, war is peace. I think I get it now.

I've actually thought about the idea of staging "fake marriages," with two strangers who have never met (one man, one woman of course) simply getting married for no reason at all. Then walk away from each other and don't do anything other file taxes together.
If heterosexual mariage is all we want, then just have thousands of so-called marriages. Flood the courthouses with marriages. Stand in line for hours. Marriage as performance art. Then again, it's not really about marriage now, is it?
