“President Obama ‘disappoints’ on gays in the military by supporting continuation of the ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ policy even though a convincing majority of Americans support having gays in the military. Obama’s support for the status quo should be surprising to … nobody. This is the m.o. of the modern President. Make sure to fail to live up to the expectations of your most fervent and hopeful supporters early on, and then when re-election approaches throw a few crumbs in their direction. Obama doesn’t need gay activist or feminist support today, and it’s not as if they’ll ever vote Republican.” (06/12/09) Link: http://tinyurl.com/klo3om Filed under: RRND Commentary | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
