Fantastic Irish PSA For Marriage Equality

Saw this over at the blog Gay Family Values. Of this ad, the blogger says:

It is truly moving and makes me wonder why we don't make videos like these here. When marriage measures came up for votes here in California and Maine we saw only bland tv spots that seemed more intent on promoting a dumbed down and diluted image that they felt would be safe for faint-hearted American viewers rather than showing the simple everyday faces of gay people and their families as this clip has done in such a moving way. This spot is only a minute long and yet, you are heartbroken by the end of it....I think the people who make these should come over here and make a few for us. Check it out:

There were some beautiful ads like this circulating on the Internet, but I don't think any of them were aired. The anti Prop. 8 campaign staff was not very good at all, in large part because all of the best progressive politicos were working for Obama. I'm not going to dig around and look for the good ads, but Courage Campaign would be a good place to start.
