Is there any remaining doubt about where the big money for redefining marriage really comes from?
Gov. Cuomo will be heading to Hollywood next week to take a bow for his successful role in passing same-sex marriage — and he’ll bring home a fistful of campaign cash from grateful glitterati.
The Hollywood fund-raiser is being hosted by some of California’s most ardent backers of same-sex marriage, showing that lesbian and gay donors are poised to help Cuomo in his re-election and beyond.
... Cuomo is scheduled to jet to Los Angeles next Friday for a fund-raiser co-hosted by big Hollywood names including Rob and Michele Reiner, Steve Bing, Katie McGrath and J.J. Abrams, Candy Spelling, Darren Star, Chris Albrecht, Kevin Huvane, Vanessa Williams and Laura and Casey Wasserman.
Reiner is one of the leaders in the fight to overturn California’s Prop 8, a state constitutional amendment that bars gay marriage.
White House decorator and interior designer Michael S. Smith and his partner, HBO executive James Costos, will host the event at their Bel Air home, which will fetch $12,500 per person for dinner and $1,000 per person for cocktails. -- New York Post

Where is the big money opposing it coming from?
Billy-defending money to promote homosexuality is a tragedy not positive thing... NOM gets its revenue from ordinary people who have been afflicted by the ssm movement; "we" are the majority.
Knights of Columbus, Archdiosese, LDS, etc.
What does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul?
It is reassuring to note that the force of right is about to prevail the right of the force in The State of New York and, hopefully, elsewhere in The United States of America. Praise THE LORD!
Also, congratulations to Honorable Judge Robert Wiggins on his courage and on doing the right thing!
Sincerely,
Mr. Romel J. Viel,
Seventh-day Adventist Christian Elder, and New York State Notary Public.
Hey govenor coumo, what makes you think you have God's ok for this pathetic bill
First, I have no agenda about California’s Prop 8 itself personally, BUT, because people have raised the question as to why Rob Reiner (Meathead) would be interested in making a movie about Prop 8, here’s another view.
Rob Reiner is the progenitor of California’s First 5 Commission, a completely dysfunctional organization (see my Facebook notes for researched documentation – 25+ articles, 12+ resignations, and at least 2 grand jury investigations can’t be wrong – http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002221479892&sk=notes).
Rob Reiner was himself forced to resign from the CA First 5 Board after clear conflict of interest problems and misspending $20+ million.
So – what’s the connection? Kris Perry is the Executive Director of First 5 California. Kris Perry is also one of the 4 named complainants in the Prop 8 lawsuit.
