NYT Rips Obama On Marriage

From today’s New York Times editorial: After he took office, it became evident that Republicans intended to portray him as a radical, out-of-touch leftist no matter what he did.

Ruben Diaz – Hate Crimes Victim

Anniversary

It was June 27th, 1969. That was the day that the queers of New York City finally said “Enough!” For some historical perspective, I’m posting the story that the New York Daily News ran about the Stonewall Riots. Note how the reports drips with condescension and ridicule. We’ve come a long, long way in 42 years and we’ve still got …

That’s why he has called for repeal of the so-called “Defense of Marriage Act” and determined that his Administration would no longer defend the constitutionality of DOMA in the courts.
