Sorry, Skeet. But it’s your own selective hearing if you haven’t heard the many, many racist things coming out of the REpublican party. I would say that their race politics and their politics on gender and sexuality are gnarled branches of the same tree of evil intentions.

Get freaking REAL! If you think President Obama has received the most vicious, bitter treatment from opposition Republicans, what the hell makes ANYONE think that the GOP would treat a President Hillary Clinton any better? Odds are, the Republicans would have treated Clinton even worse.

Sexism within the Republican Party is even more deeply entrenched than racism (Just ask Michelle Bachmann).

Gay activists make me wanna puke most of the time these days. So Pres. Obama gets the repeal of ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell,’ and signs Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crime Prevention Act plus a slew of other small yet significant acts that go underreported.

But these whining folks are crying because he hasn’t fully backed Marriage equality although he’s hinted he will evolve on and hasn’t pushed through ENDA. Well hello, it’s called politics which means U don’t get everything when you want, when you want it and even how you want it.

Hell none of that would have happen under GOP reign so the gays should be jumping for joy. If they were smart they’d be backing Obama like crazy so he can “evolve” on marriage equality in his second term. This is crazy. Drama queen gay activists!!

Obama had the strength and wisdom, not to mention class, to name his leading rival Secretary of State. The superb job she has done, including on December 6, deserves our applause and thanks–but she acted as the President’s representative, not as a lone ranger–notwithstanding the fact that, as he knew when he appointed her, she brings her own considerable stature to the job. They have been a good team.

I am glad to hear reports from Lane Hudson’s gut, but I agree with Hilary Rosen. We do not know that a President Hillary Clinton would have evolved any faster than Obama on marriage, nor do we know that she could have navigated the GOP obstruction better than he. It is all idle talk. One thing nobody anywhere on the political spectrum thinks is that Mrs. Clinton is stupid. There is no way that she would damage herself by mounting a challenge to an incumbent Democratic president, regardless of how much some people want it. If she wants it in 2016, she’ll have my support. In the meantime, those who truly respect her will stop embarrassing her and get with the program for 2012.

@Customartist I agree. But this president is far too arrogant to consider that option. To the others that replied in an attack-full manner, if all you have is character assassination and personal attacks in your arsenal, then you are just as guilty for not looking at the bigger picture. keep drinking the kool-aid. See how far it gets you. On that note, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

GET OVER IT ALREADY, OBAMA IS IN THE WHITE. He has done more for the LGBT community than any of the men before him.

An Obama/Clinton ticket would cinch the Presidency through 2012 and save the Nation, albeit possibly temporarily, from Capitalist Ruin.

Get over it! The man has done so much for this community. And yet some people are still crying over 2008 milk! You wanna cry? Vote in the GOP! Then in 2013 you will be sitting here asking if we should have been happy with the Prersident we got in 2008.

Derek is right. Some in our community are acting like bitter Tea Party fools. Get over it and get over yourselves
