I’ve been increasingly annoyed by the emails I’ve been receiving in the last six months or so from Geoff Kors and his Equality California underlings. I gave them a couple of shots of money in the last few weeks of October 2008, when we all suddenly realized that Prop 8 might be a real thing. But then the more I Iearned about that California battle after the fact, and the ways in which it seemed to me to be totally mismanaged, the more it pissed me off. And I funneled my rage toward Geoff Kors, and EQCA, and HRC, for being so unprepared all around. And the fact that I’m still on their email list, and they keep asking me to contact my California reps (even though I live in Illinois and I’ve never been to California, hello, filter your out-of-state donors for the love of god) just kept fueling my rage at their ineptitude.

But then I saw this ad. And I keep watching it over and over again. And tearing up every time. And I think they might have finally started to get it right.
