EQCA/Kors: It's the Homo Who's Perverse,
Not the Situation in Which He Lives

How perverse is the California variety of the homosexual, male and female? So perverse there is no loud cry of horror and alarm at the prospect of Geoff Kors, the executive director of Equality California who led the battle against Prop 8, being in charge of the next ballot initiative here.

I'm probably the lone homo truly frightened over what was printed in Sunday's San Francisco Chronicle:

Although the state Supreme Court has agreed to hear a challenge to Prop. 8 early next year, preparations already are being made to fight the battle for marriage rights all over again if the court doesn't overturn the constitutional amendment passed by voters in November, said Geoff Kors, executive director of Equality California.

"We can't just sit around until June and see what (the justices) do," he said. "We will take this back to the ballot if we have to and get our rights back."

It may have been two or three days after Prop 8 passed that Kors began talking up going back to the ballot box and voters on gay marriage, with he and EQCA leading the effort.

Unfortunately, I have not heard the voice of a single homo say, "What just a minute, Geoff. We still need accountability from you over the Prop 8 loss."

Keeping Kors in charge of EQCA and allowing him to be the official homo leader for the state, and chatting up the prospect of another intiative fight with him at the helm, is equal to rehiring Michael "heck-of-a-job" Brown to lead FEMA.

Remember how important it was for Brown to eat a nice dinner, way outside of New Orleans and away from its drowning inhabitants, in the Hurricane Katrina aftermath?

That meal for Brownie is as important as Kors taking a two-and-a-half week vacation in Spain during the Prop 8 campaign, at a time when he was accusing the homos of being complacent.

When I hear homos today talk about the supposed perversion of the Mormons and Catholics and others who got Prop 8 ratified by the voters, and that the poor homo is a victim, I tune out such talk.

It's the homo who's perverse, not the situation in which he lives or the social forces arrayed against us. Only the depraved and perverse would keep Kors as the top homo for Calfornia and permit him to be seriously thinking of repeating his mistakes during the next ballot fight for homos.

Hey, Geoff "heck-of-a-job" Kors: Why has your group not yet organized a public forum, or announced a future date for one, regarding what you and the executive committee of No on Prop 8 did wrong?
