I am going to watch Oblahblah’s speech to the HRC, and when they give him a standing ovation, I am going to throw up all over my TV set.

With everyone complaining about what the President is not doing, I wonder just how many will either:
1. Be in Washington this weekend,
2. Write a letter the President and/or legislators supporting what we want, or
3. Make a phone call to the President and/or legislators supporting what we want.

Social conservative opponents of LGBT equality can and do flood the White House with well over a million letters, calls, postcards expressing their demands. If we cannot respond in kind, we have no right to expect anything. Complacency is the reason we lost on proposition 8. Did we learn anything or are we all heading to bars and parties this weekend?

Slowly (way too slowly) Obama makes progress for we Gays. Let’s just hope he can pull off his agendas for us.

I hope they give him a standing ovation, just to make my point. A standing ovation — for a commander in chief who permits his soldiers to be thrown out on their ass because they are gay — in wartime. HAIL TO THE CHIEF!

Its a please to see that the liberals are starting to take off their rose colored glasses and realize that god-Obama is NOT perfect and never will be. Politicians are politicians they will lie to get what they want, I don’t care who they are, left or right, black or white. They will lie to you to get what they want. Sad but true..

It is so easy to keep Obama and the gay inactivists happy with each other. Lots of wine, fine dining, toasts, speeches, promises lost in time, and an appointment now and them. The bottom line is that DADT and DOMA are going to be on the books until after the 2010 elections. Probably through some back room deal. Beyond 2010? Keep pouring the wine.

This is a classic example of panem et circenses.
