Well, thanks really shouldn't go out to that Turkish master criminal but rather the Oscar-winning and avowed heterosexual actor who brought him to sinister life in 1995's The Usual Suspects: Kevin Spacey.

So why should we be thanking Mr. Spacey? Because he recently -- and eloquently -- spoke out against California's abhorrent Prop 8 at a fundraiser in New York.  The interview comes courtesy of DoSomething.org's blog Celebs Gone Good.

"Well there’s no doubt that election night was a bittersweet night. But in some ways, these kinds of setbacks allow for a bigger fight, more challenges, and eventually we’re going to get it right. Eventually the American public will figure out that it really isn’t right to deny citizens basic civil human rights. And we can no longer allow that to happen. So the fact that these things were voted in, to me, it’s just an example of the fact that they had more money. How much money did the Mormon church put in? So I hope, like Arnold Schwarzenegger said, 'Don’t give up. Keep protesting.'"

Thanks, Kevin! Now maybe if you came clean about your own sexual identity, your voice would be even more powerful in this fight!
