But would President Obama use the “evolve” line for any other type of civil right? Is he still pondering whether women, Native Americans and blacks should have the right to vote? Has he made up his mind about the legality of his own parents’ marriage? As we celebrate July 4, is “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” confined to hetero couples?

They were legally wed in Vancouver, B.C. in 2005. I believe when “partners” get married they’re called spouses. Or doesn’t the Blade recognize Canadian marriages as valid? And does that apply to both opposite sex as well as same sex marriages?

However, this man is no ‘baffoon’.

I am grateful we have a president– a former community activist/ organizer, himself– who understands and appreciates why LGBT activists must keep pushing him.

My grandmother could walk across the USA faster than this is getting handled!
