A cocktail party in honor of our LGBT friends of color
Who have been caught in the middle of this crossfire over Prop 8.

In this thread, you are guests of honor. We're hiring a DJ, and serving snacks and drinks. Any preferences?

11. It's lovely and you wear it well. I selected
something formal for such an elegant party.

You can't go wrong in a nice tux.



The wine is oustanding, and the food...well, you out did yourself.

Cheers everyone. *hoists a toast*

10. They need this big time. *hugs* to my AA GLBT sisters and brothers
And I'm sorry there isn't more outrage about the Latino/Hispanic vote screwing us over.

I'm half Latino and I'm furious at them.


I am happy to see the Mormons getting their due!

For what it's worth, my parents would have voted against us gays. I love them, but I hold resentment against them too.

13. Thank you! Can I get you a drink?
Ellen stepped out to freshen up, she'll be back in a moment. In the meantime, name your beverage and settle in.
