Proposition 107 Deception
Opponents deceived the voters:When supporters of Arizona's Proposition 107 talked about the proposed constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage, they talked about protecting traditional marriage from the threat of same-sex unions.

Len Munsil for Governor (Video)
Len Munsil takes aim at Janet Napolitano's stand on national security in this campaign ad. The two main criticisms of the governor are that she supports giving drivers licenses to illegal aliens (i.e., free identification) and praised the now infamous 9/11 Memorial that contained anti-American slogans (her response was...Kyl vs Pederson on Abortion

The Bankrupt Tactics of Proposition 107 Opponents
Proposition 107 is about keeping marriage between one man and one woman. Opponents use red herrings, scare tactics, exaggerations and misinformation rather than take ownership of their extreme advocacy of gay marriage, a practice the majority of Arizonans oppose. Here’s one example - a sign I passed on my drive...October 25, 2006
Vote 'Yes' on AZ Proposition 107
Here's the wake-up call:New Jersey’s highest court today ruled that “there is no fundamental right to same-sex marriage” but gave the legislature six months to create a structure for same-sex couples to receive all the same benefits of marriage. In December, attorneys for the Alliance Defense Fund coordinated friend-of-the-court briefs...October 24, 2006
