Evidence that the Mormons DID Bank-roll Yes-on-8

I have heard about this alleged video from the Mormon church that supposedly PROVES that Mormons bank-rolled Yes-on-8 efforts. As a scientist, I have learned to be skeptical about hear-say, and VERY suspicious of the word "prove." We should always demand evidence to support our claims, no matter what our vocation. Especially, us gays.

I am posting this video (taken from Californians Against Hate) that I find to include very compelling evidence that the Mormon church DID in fact lobby substantially to have Prop 8 passed, thereby demonstrating this church's political involvement. In the broadcasted message, church elders outline their plan to have proposition 8 passed, including a multi-media blitzkrieg and a massive "blossoming" of yard signs (you remember these foul flowers).

No church that becomes a political action organization should be tax-exempt.
