"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

Stay Home, Don't Vote? ....Not Sure What To Say Except... No Wonder....

.... there's no policy change for the civil rights of GLBT citizens.

And, no wonder .... Dem women are losing ground.

And, no wonder the Dem electorate can't understand the White House's message about why they should vote. (Against the Chamber of Commerce, WTF?)

One has to conclude, at this point, that the President's handlers are deliberately throwing 2010. So that he won't have to take all the blame from here on out. Cuz if they shut down the gay vote, the women's vote and the Blue Dawg vote... they will lose big time.

GOTV is now SHDV? "Stay Home Don't Vote?"

With friends like these who needs enemies?

18 Years of Service, "Hand Picked" to Control the Air Space Over DC After 9/11, Now a Victim of DADT? TAKE ACTION!!

Lt. Col. Victor Fehrenbach is an eighteen year, decorated Air Force pilot. Such is his skill and bravery, that he was hand picked to control the air space over DC after 9/11!

Now he is out of a job???



If you go to Service Members Legal Defense Network there is a place for you to write to Secretary Donley and let him know that this is unacceptable to us!

We must speak out, not only for gay military members... but for the sake of our own safety. Our armed forces simply cannot afford to keep losing highly skilled and competent officers.

PS. Has anyone rallied a letter writing campaign to Pretendent Obama yet?

I'm Sorry, Mr. President, But This Doesn't Look Like Someone We Can Afford to Fire


Did you know that the military is still discharging soldiers for being openly gay?

One of these soldiers is California's own Lt. Dan Choi. In March he went on Rachel Maddow's show and spoke honestly about his sexual orientation. As a result in April the Army sent him a letter of discharge. Lt. Choi is fighting the discharge and fighting the discriminatory "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.

I just signed a petition from the Courage Campaign to President Obama, urging him to do the right thing by stopping the discharge of Lt. Dan Choi and other LGBT soldiers, and asking President Obama to uphold his promise to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." They are going to deliver it to the president and it's important that as many people as possible speak out right now.

Will you join me in signing and urge your friends to do the same?:

President Obama, Don't Fire Dan!
