White House to Gays: No Action on DADT This Year. TTYL!

This can't really be a surprise to anyone, can it? Seriously? Even the waiters for miracles, counters of baby-steps and appreciators of the good little things have to have seen this coming.

Change We Can Believe In -- Like We Believe In Santa Claus!

Obama promised Change We Can Believe In, not Change We're Actually Going To See.

And his State of the Union address said that he'd work with Congress this year to repeal DADT, not that DADT would be repealed this year. So it looks like all those gay servicemen and servicewomen will just have to take comfort in all the good little things that Obama does for them apart from allowing them to risk their lives for a country that denies them equal protection under the law. At least their gay partners can visit them in the hospital. Can't they? Or does that constitute "telling"?

No, Jordan, that would be telling--or asking--and it would mean a dishonorable discharge.

We can visit our partners in the hospital EXCEPT when they're serving the country. Or when God comes into the blender.

And don't ask why. Because the president's not telling.

what? you thought i meant this year?

"this year some day, maybe, i will might work with congress and our military to finally repeal talk about very quietly the law that denies gay americans the right to serve the country they love because of who they are, but don;t expect too much, ok, because every year is an election year and y'all are just not very popular with americans, k?"

and let's not even get started on the evil that dare not speak its name, doma.
is 2013 good for you? no? ok, how about never? does never work?
