Easter’s just about to get a lot gayer. Each year on the Monday after Easter, kids and their parents gather on the South Lawn of the White House for the Easter Egg Roll with the one and only Easter Bunny (no, we don’t mean Karl Rove). Gay religious activist group Soulforce has sent an e-mail to its members asking LGTB families to be first in line for the festivities.
According to Soulforce, “LGBT” participants are being urged to gather at the White House gate the night before so as to be the first to enter the next morning. Volunteers will stand in line for “LGBT” parents who cannot do it themselves. Although Soulforce insists this will not be a political protest, only a gathering for families, its supporters will arrive with special “non-political” t-shirts to identify themselves as “LGTB.”
Aside from the T-shirt thing (Fox News will have an editing field day with that) we think it’s a great idea. Just a word of caution: If you go, keep your kids away from the man in the bunny suit. We’re pretty sure it’ll be Dick Cheney.
