Ellen Takes Aim at Palin

Comedienne Ellen DeGeneres took aim at VP hopeful Sarah Palin's views on the legality of gay marriage.
"Vice presidential candidate, Governor Sarah Palin, says she favors a federal ban on gay marriage," Ellen said on her show today. "Basically, she wants to change The Constitution."
The Emmy-winning talk show hostess continued, "I don't like it. I don't agree. Maybe it's because I'm gay that I think we should all be equal, but I feel that we're all equal. I don't know what people are scared of -- maybe they think that their children will be influenced. I was raised by two heterosexuals, I was surrounded by heterosexuals -- and they didn't influence me."
DeGeneres ended with, "People are going to be who they're going to be, and we need to love them for who they are. That's that."
Ellen and longtime partner Portia de Rossi wed in an intimate Beverly Hills ceremony last August.



















Earl - Judging from the majority of the comments here the real issues have been long lost.
Ticked off because Ellen shared her opinion? Really? Her make up is bad and Palin’s isn’t? Really? Palin’s wardrobe cost a bundle? Really?
How are any of those things going to effect your life after our new president is elected?
And honestly, is a married gay couple going to? How? If you’re so opposed to it are you going to have the couple to dinner? Hang out? Have any interaction? Not very likely.
If you form your opinions from what you hear and read and don’t do your own research,educate yourself and use your own brain, shame on you… enjoy your cave of ignorance, clearly you’ll have lots of company.
Following the flock leads to the whole flock going off a sharp, steep cliff. The past 8 years are proof positive of that.
Don’t get so fired up over a story on an entertainment website. Sheesh.
