Well, one part of me feels bad that they will never get any help, but the BIGGER part of me loves that he used "fierce".

So he gets a pass from me on this one.

I can't believe he actually said that.

I can imagine it would be doubly-difficult for two gay fisherman who want to get married in the Gulf.

Barack Obama, December 18, 2008:

"I will continue to a fierce advocate for gay and lesbian Americans."

You know who would have it really rough? Gay guys thrown out of the military because of a romantic relationship who move to the Gulf to open an oyster business. That'd be bad.

I know. Sucks to be gay guys thrown out of the military because of a romantic relationship who move to the Gulf to open an oyster business.

That sounds more like a lesbian thing, really.

Also sucks to be lesbians thrown out of the military because of a romantic relationship who move to the Gulf to open an oyster business.

Anyone watch the President? I feel ... not optimistic.

Uh oh...

He sounded like he took lessons from GWB to make himself "sound" tough. Anyone else regret their vote?

^ This can't be good.
