Just announced — President Barack Obama proclaims June 2009 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month. YAY!
This is outstanding news for those of us who support the human experiences of love and family without regard to sexual orientation. Through this proclamation, President Obama has shown both courage and compassion. I applaud him!

I’m sorry to say that I don’t think it means too much. He mentioned gay Americans in his victory speech and now this, but he doesn’t support gay marriage and at least 218 service members have been discharged under Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell since he took office. We need actions, not just gestures.
