Welcome Wanda to the Family


I just learned that Wanda Sykes came out today at a Las Vegas gay rally. I always suspect her but I'm glad to hear that she out and married to a woman.

She said: We are so together now and we all want the same thing and we shouldn’t have to settle for less. Instead of having gay marriage in California, no, we’re gonna have gay marriage across the country. When my wife and I leave California, I want to have my marriage also recognized in Nevada, in Arizona, all the way to New York. ... I’m proud to be a woman, I’m proud to be a black woman and I’m proud to be gay."

"People shouldn’t have to talk about their sexual orientation, we shouldn’t have to do it, but with the legislation that they passed, I can’t sit by and just watch. I just can’t do it."

Maybe this movement will bring more people out and about.

People don't know this but Wanda help write a lot of Chris Rock's stuff.

Man the Mormons are scared now. I see on a lot of gay friendly sites that they have a list of the companies and the donors for Prop 8.

Now a lot of Mormons own those casinos in Las Vegas and Ski season is happening soon for Utah. You know a boycott would be bad for a business in this economy.
