Obama: Rainbow Warrior!

May 9th, 2012 by Dick

Yesterday, President Obama was the POSSIBLY best President in history on LGBTQ rights. Seriously! I did the research. (Dick reads the papers!)

He had repealed Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.

He had stopped defending Section 3 of DOMA.

He had enforced hospital visitation rights for LGBTQ Americans.

He had hosted the first ever White House Conference on Bullying Prevention.

He had lifted the ban prohibiting those with HIV/AIDS from entering the U.S..

And had signed the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention Act into law.

Then, today, he endorsed gay marriage.
So…While we tend to stay VERY unpolitical on this site. I mean, frankly, I’m a Libertarian…. (In the last election, I voted for Alfred E. Newman!) But, no matter what party you belong to – all of us gays should be celebrating today’s milestone! Save the political differences for another day, the partisan power-plays can wait till next week. Today – and this weekend – let’s celebrate! Let’s get Loud & Queer!
