The only thing Obama promised the GLBT community was to get rid of Don't Ask, Don't Tell (DADT). He spoke in general terms about being sympathetic to our struggle, but yada yada yada, mostly he spouted bullshit. HOWEVER, and it's a big, fucking however, he promised to get rid of DADT. Apparently, it isn't quite as important to him as President as it was to him as a candidate. Now we're being told that the military needs to study the problem carefully and "get back to him."
Okay, this is my first request of President Obama. Your people are saying that the repeal of DADT is on a back burner and may not even be acted upon this year. Okay fine. You can, however, unilaterally as President, stop the anti-Gay witch hunts, the harrassing of Gays and Lesbians in the military, and stop all discharges of Gays and Lesbians until the larger issue is resolved. And while I hate to yell, President Obama, you and your administration have been tone-fucking-deaf to Gay and Lesbian issues and sensibilities since your election, so I feel forced to yell, for one reason, you don't seem to be listening, and secondly, because you need to know how important it is to us:
STOP THE FUCKING DISCHARGES OF HONORABLE MEN AND WOMEN IN THE U.S. MILITARY SERVICES WHO ARE SUSPECTED OF BEING GAY OR LESBIAN!
Can you hear me now?
Hey Houston,
I think I have found you, I'm you long lost cousin, Donna from Maryland, remember? WE are connected on the Droddy side. I live in Louisiana and want to know about the family reunion?
