Elton John To Headline AFER Fundraiser

Elton John in November 2008: "We're not married. Let's get that right. We have a civil partnership. What is wrong with Proposition 8 is that they went for marriage. Marriage is going to put a lot of people off, the word marriage. I don't want to be married. I'm very happy with a civil partnership."

Despite that position, Elton will be performing a charity concert for the American Foundation for Equal Rights (AFER), the group backing the repeal of Prop 8. Via press release:

1. Why doesn't he just go away?
A jackass like him is not going to be a big draw for such a fundraiser.

5. I want to be married someday, if I can find someone who likes me.
Fuck Elton John. Actually, no, even I wouldn't fuck him.

8. Yeah, of all the people AFER could have found...yuck.
I worship AFER but was SO disappointed that they are turning to turn-coat-do-anything-for-money-Elton-John for this fundraiser. It cheapens the cause and has dampened my respect for AFER.
