Obscanity: You'll know it when you see it

Mormons Tipped Scale in Ban on Gay Marriage – NYTimes.com:

Suggested talking points were equally precise. If initial contact indicated a prospective voter believed God created marriage, the church volunteers were instructed to emphasize that Proposition 8 would restore the definition of marriage God intended.

But if a voter indicated human beings created marriage, Script B would roll instead, emphasizing that Proposition 8 was about marriage, not about attacking gay people, and about restoring into law an earlier ban struck down by the State Supreme Court in May.

Of course, they don’t mention Script C, for those who indicated support for gay marriage. “Oh, you support gay marriage? Great! So do we! Don’t forget to vote YES on Prop 8 to protect gay marriage!”

SHAME.
