		<description><![CDATA[Totally agree. The difference Obama can make, right now, is to sign that executive order and protect 22% of the American LGBT workforce with just his signature. If he continues to refuse, he continues to demonstrate his own hypocrisy and disbelief in his own rhetoric. It&#039;s really no more complicated than that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;we were never sent here to be perfect. We were sent here to make what difference we can...&quot; 
-President Obama, Feb 12, 2013.

Yet, the Administration claims just the opposite, to excuse the President&#039;s broken 2008 campaign promise for a LGBTQ inclusive employment nondiscrimination executive order. He now insists that the difference he is empowered to make as President is not worthwhile, unless a more perfect (and politically impossible) legislative ENDA law is achieved first. The false dichotomy in his logic and the mockery in his words about &quot;the basic bargain that built this country&quot; are beyond cynical. As a single parent and trans woman with a Ph.D. in engineering, more than 30 years of business and academic accomplishment and in my 5th year of unemployment and life on the road, I am beyond disappointed.]]></description>
