The Cali Garmo

Jim Stork, who was the second consecutive gay mayor in the town of Wilton Manors, recently said that 'voters who fought gay marriage can kiss my a--.'

The whole thing started with the Miami Herald and campaign fines. Why is it always the same with politicians? Anyway, the Herald wrote an article about a \$30,000 fine that Stork received during his run for congress in 2004 (he stopped his campaign halfway through the race due to heart complications). Stork was on vacation in Miami when this article was published on Christmas and so he sent a very exciting letter to the Miami Herald, in this letter he talks about gay marriage. Specifically he says:

"I have no more tolerance for those who voted for Amendment 2 or those who want to take my rights away ... which includes dumb rednecks, bible thumping white folks, bible thumping Hispanics, self-centered educated people who are so self absorbed that they don't bother to look into an issue, lazy gay people who don't get involved or are too weak to come out of the closet, and am now most disappointed in African Americans who should be the least likely group of folks to judge others, but are the ones who judge others the most ... all of these folks can kiss my a--.''

Unfortunately in Florida, Amendment 2, which barred gay marriage in its constitution, passed this past year in the 2008 election cycle. The amendment needed 60% in order to pass as it was an amendment and received 62% of the vote.

60%? Hey California, since Prop 8 was an AMENDMENT to our constitution, shouldn't it need 60% to win also?! If we can change the constitution by such a simple majority I am afraid for California's future. But props to Stork. Keep fighting the good fight!
