Never ever stop fighting and never expect that someone else is actually ever going to fight for your rights. @Alan down in Florida:

These are our REAL leaders and I doubt that any of them frequent rubber chicken dinners with the HRC and some sitcom star. If the HRC spent half their time and money on action versus catering, we might get somewhere. Alan

I am so down with you …down in Florida.

the HRC and some sitcom star.

Not a single sycophant, starfucking fundraiser in the bunch. While I am as skeptical as Paul Raposo about what will happen under an Obama presidency I ask everyone to be patient, wait and see and work locally. As much as we hate to admit it, gay rights is not the penultimate challenge facing America as the new President prepares to assume the mantle of power. Give him the time and support he needs.

But let's not forget that Clinton hired many gays when he pecame prez before, as Jack E. Jett is fond of writing; hate fucking us. I still remember the images on CNN of WH security handling gay protesters with blue rubber gloves, something they had never done with any previous protesters. This is excellent.
