Nick, I was one of those who said in a post that we must be willing to compromise, be patient, and persevere. I understand that we want what we want. But, we aren't going to get it now. We need to take what we can get. We need to build on each right we gain and show the majority that we are responsible citizens. I am convinced the day we come when gays have full rights equal to those of straight people.
I for one am not yet impressed with Obama. I keep reminding myself that he is a politician. His agenda is one thing, his accomplishments may be another.
