Kathy Griffin defends right of gays to marry...

Kathy Griffin was the woman of the hour at the weekend's Creative Arts Emmys as she won for the second year in a row for her "My Life on the D-List" show in the outstanding reality show category.

Before the awards, I asked Kathy about gay marriage in California and the fight by backers of Proposition 8 to stop it. Here's what she said: "The gays should have all the same rights as everybody else, it's ridiculous. That it's even a question in this day and age is ridiculous and arcane and it's a shame. That's why I'm saying, it might be fun to think of vice president (Sarah) Palin, but then when you really, really think about it, not so fun. No so fun for the gays, not so good for the women."
