(CNN) – Former President George W. Bush's daughter Barbara is appearing in a new web video in support of gay marriage.

The 20-second spot released Monday is sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign, a civil rights organization that works to achieve lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality.

"I'm Barbara Bush and I'm a New Yorker for marriage equality," Bush says. "New York is about fairness and equality and everyone should have the right to marry the person that they love. Join us."

Yep, it's the one you thought it would be. She lives in NYC, maybe they really do put something in the water.

[Army Air Corps]

She hopes that this will get her invited to all the right parties in the NYC social scene. She has decided to become an attention whore...and at a cheap price.

[Red Badger]

Are we sure that she’s not kin to McCain?.....

[A_Former_Democrat]

Ok then I want to marry several women and my dog. After all, I should be able to marry anyone I want to.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The New World Order psychosis runs deep in the Bushes.

[Theodore R.]

I bet her mother and grandmother put her up to this!

[Friendofgeorge]

I guess she does not embrace Christianity, very sad. I guess GW is alone with his Christian faith. Dad does not share it, nor does mom or wife, and now daughter. What do you expect when the favorite show is Desperate Housewives

[mewykwistmas]

Who cares? What did she achieve in life that we should listen to her?

[NormsRevenge]

WOOF! WOOF WOOF!

[Mr Rogers]

“I’m a New Yorker”

The only phrase in her comment that needs to be known. Know that, and the rest follows.

LOL. I’ll wager she makes her own damn decisions.

Was the one flopping around drunk on the bar room floor?

[OldDeckHand]

"Ok then I want to marry several women and my dog."

I promise you that's next. Marriage will eventually be defined as any anything, meaning of course it actually is nothing. Mission accomplished, leftists.

[Vendome]

They can have civil unions but not the word marriage.

[SonOfDarkSkies]

Replace the women with some cats. Women will suck the blood out of you, but cats will only claw up your furniture.

[DGHoodini]

i won’t say she’s a whore, but: Shame on you girl! You were raised batter than that, weren’t you?

[OldDeckHand]

"Was the one flopping around drunk on the bar room floor?"

Weren't they both pinched for that? I think they were.

[freedom_is_earned]

This may be news (barely?), but it cannot possibly be a surprise. I would be much more surprised if she said something against it and the same w her sister.

I guess GW is alone with his Christian faith

I saw a clip of him being interviewed by C-SPAN'S Brian Lamb. In it, President Bush said that he was through with politics, through raising money for campaigns and not about to comment on his successor.

I wonder whether he'll comment on his daughter's ad? I am thinking [and hoping] NOT.
