More Prop 8 Activism From Ellen

From Ellen DeGeneres’ site today:

Don’t Discriminate — No on 8! Hey everybody. There’re only a couple weeks left before we vote. In California there’s a proposition that’s trying to take away my right to be married. And if it passes, my marriage will probably no longer be valid. The supporters of Proposition 8 have raised more than $25 million just to discriminate against same-sex couples who want to get married. That’s a lot of money. I can think of 25 million other uses for all that money: – How about paying teachers more?
– What about helping those people who just lost their homes in the recent fires?
– How about buying a pony for every child in California? How much fun would that be?! Don’t let them convince you that discrimination is okay just because they can pay for a commercial. It’s wrong. Please vote NO ON PROPOSITION 8! I’m begging you. If you vote no on Prop 8, I’ll buy you a pony.

In addition to the above, Ellen goes on a Prop 8 rant on today’s show. I shudder to send you to Perez Hilton, but only he has the clip so far.
