Good grief, they didn't have to read it.

A miscarriage of justice!

Individuals donated, moron. The Church didn't donate a dime. The majority of
California citizens voted FOR Prop 8! Don't blame a minor player in the
process. The anti-prop 8 people outspent all of the pro prop 8 by more than
twice. Do the California voters not count?
