6. Our Farce Advocate in action -- again
Every time the LGBT community threatens to make an inch of progress, this administration has fought it. Every. Single. Time. I'm sick unto death hearing about token offerings and token appointments that don't mean one single goddam thing to the rest of us outside the Beltway. I still can't get married, my fellows still can't serve in the military openly, I still can be fired for being gay, if I didn't own my own home I could possibly be evicted from a rental property for being gay, the DOJ has yet to enforce the new hate crimes law protecting LGBT (second-class) citizens.

There have been three separate federal court rulings finding DADT unconstitutional. The majority of the American public believes the law is antiquated and needs to go. Mr Obama let a bad bank bill die on his desk in a pocket veto, yet he has to come fuck with us again. Time after time after time the DOJ has fought GLBT equality on several separate issues. They're fast approaching "Kiss My Ass"-ville.
