Great. I don’t begrudge the money to the Third World, but now let’s see the BuschReich reverse the eight years of neglect and budget cuts in their DOMESTIC HIV-AIDS programs … like the 24-month LIFETIME limit on housing assistance. People with HIV-AIDS will still be disabled in 24 months; they will still need housing. Or the cuts in In-Home Support Services care workers. People with HIV-AIDS still need IHSS workers, and they WON’T need them for FEWER hours. My partner has end-stage AIDS. There are TWENTY THOUSAND people ahead of us on the Section 8 / senior / subsidized housing lists in San Diego. I was APPALLED to see HIV-AIDS a distant THIRD in your poll of GLBT political priorities.

Huzzah! I’ve voted against the man twice, and have been supportive of VERY LITTLE he’s EVER even touched, but for ONCE I am proud of my president. Not only did he get the ball rolling on this, he’s never turned this into a partisan fight (something he’s been really good at over 8 years) and even supported lifting the travel restrictions. I think this will show that the US can still be one of the greatest countries on the planet–though we still have a long way to go to wipe the slate clean.

Next stop: Apologize for the Native American genocide, support Armenian genocide claims, apologize for slavery, fix health care, fix education, get out of Iraq, forgive third world debt, apologize for causing more conflict in the middle east and end poverty and hunger. We’ve got a lot of work to do.

Oh yeah, don’t forget to GIVE EQUAL RIGHTS TO EVERY CITIZEN REGARDLESS OF SEXUAL ORIENTATION OR GENDER IDENTITY! That’s a freaking doozie!
