Blender asks U.S. Senator about LGBT rights. Response: you're 'fortunate to have Obama in the WH'

Wow. Just Wow. With the naked drama and paranoia over Obama's senior domestic policy aide Melody Barnes's simple statement about marriage equality, and the slow movement on LGBT issues by the WH and Congress, I guess we should be happy that these nuggets of wisdom keep coming out that justify the DNC donor boycott/"pause".

Should LGBT People Stop Giving Money to the Democratic National Committee?

Are you frustrated that ten months into the Obama administration, there's still no repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," no Employment Non-Discrimination Act, no repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act, and no sign that President Obama wants to help defeat statwide ballot measures that seek to repeal gay marriage rights? If so, then there's a new movement just for you, and it's meant to cut off the gay ATM that continually helps fund the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

DNC's OFA emails Mainers about tomorrow's election, conveniently forgets to mention the anti-gay ballot initiative

I'm sure it's just an oversight that the Democratic National Committee's organization, "Organizing for America," sent a "get out and vote message" to Mainers a short while ago, and forgot to mention the number one issue in the state right now, the effort to repeal the right of gay couples to marry in the state.
