Quelle surprise. OBAMA is a liar and I am ashamed to have wasted my vote on him. He promised Gay marriage and equal rights for all LGBT people but he does not do anything! I feel cheated!

@wondermann:

Uh, the immediate subject is Obama or the Secretary of Defense using their fully legal powers to freeze discharges UNTIL repeal happens.

The secondary subject is that Obama Wan Kenobi hasn’t even bothered to give the 77 elected members of the United States Congress who signed the previous letter to him the courtesy of a reply. Even one that says, “No, I’m not going to do that and here’s why…..”

Alcee, join Patrick Murphy and the others who are working on the repeal. Writing letters ain’t cutting it.

I respect Alcee, but this letter writing thing isn’t effective. He needs to get in there and work.

Wow, it’s amazing that in that whole Congress we’ve got almost nobody with the gumption to stand up for human rights. This guy’s got courage, and convictions for sure.

Nice!

Even though I’m not in his district, I found his campaign site. I”m going to send donation to this guys reelection campaign. Here is the site if anybody else wants to. I would hit him with an e-mail letting him know where the extra money is coming from too.

President Obama .

I am an Obama delegate from Precinct 68* in Texas. I waited almost an entire Saturday of my life last year at the (super unorganized) Houston County Precinct Convention to vote for you.

I expect action and leadership on your part on DADT, ENDA, Marriage Equality, etc.

We are all waiting on you do do something/anything/ NOW!

Bravo for Hastings!

The Palm Center demonstrated by an analysis of daily media hits on DADT that the White House does respond to PRESSURE. The White House tea for the gays and Secretary of Defense Gates bullshit about searching for a “more humane” way to regulate discharges came AFTER many gays stopped giving money to the DNC…AND the demands on the WH to explain why the Big O had gone back on his explicit promises to fight for repeal the moment he took office.

Then some collaborationists gays started distracting MSM with attacks on the idea of an executive order and the number of daily stories fell by 50%.

Obama Inc. is still smile fucking us about wanting to get rid of DADT but they are doing NOTHING…except continuing to discharge gays day after day after day…376 since he was inaugurated and counting.
