Moderator: Actually, I vehemently disagree. Rep House minority Speaker has a plan. Unfortunately, she never was electable as Pres. of the USA. This woman can get the job (any job) done! Also, Pres. Obama has always had a plan. But, even when the Democratics held the majority, too many of them were "Blue Dog" Democratics. Blue Dogs are former Republicans that left the Republican Party following Lincoln. The Blue Dogs - coupled with Republicans have blocked almost everything. But, do not forget that Pres. Obama did sign the hate crime Bill that protects the lgbt community. He reversed DADT, as well. How quickly we forget!!!!! Yes, Pres. Obama has a plan and if "we the people" elected democratics to the US House, we would have reversed DOMA. If Americans come to their senses, Pres. Obama now plans to reverse DOMA in his sencond term if progressive democratics can take back the House of Reps and maintain the Senate. Doma can not be reversed with a anti-gay Republican House of Representatives. Again, stand by your current president and vote! How many gay people publicly attack me for supporting Pres. Obama. You seriously think that "a" Pres. Romney, or any other republican would have signed the hate crime bill and/or, reversed DADT? Are we in fantasy land. Democratics have protected you, you just need to vote for them. Our not voting in the last 2010 election crippled us. If Pres. Obama is defeated in 2012, say goodbye to Pres. Obama's Health care plan that shall protect people with HIV and other pre-existing illness's from gaining medical insurance. Any of you have HIV, or friends with HIV? You tell me how bad, difficult it is with-out ability to get health insurance. I am tired of people stating that democratics have no plan. They have given the LGBT community almost everything (more than I ever imagined), under Pres. Obama. The apathy I hear disgusts me! Too many of you are listening to FOX chatter and if you hear it long enough, you start to believe it. .....jake

I totally agree! At the federal level we hear the most strident, unbelievable comments with candidates and seated members of the Republican party. I've long wondered why the Democratic elements are not more forceful in refuting the stuff that they produce to condemn and bad mouth the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. I've watched carefully as our President, Barrack Obama, has been "nice" to the opposing forces in our government. It's time to take off those frigging gloves and demand a few things. We are a secular government. If you wish to rule people, become a minister but stay out of politics. Those who are using their religious pulpits to push so-called christian candidates should be much more concerned about their religious exemption from taxes. The entire Republican party should be willing to solve our financial problems by getting rid of the Bush tax cuts. Even Grover Norquist doesn't consider that a tax increase. Grow a pair and
start FIGHTING!

I can't agree with this article at all. The anti-gay groups (Focus on the Family, Family Research Council, etc.,) don't just have a different "opinion" or "belief". They go out of their way to suppress OUR rights, calling us sinners, equating our relationships with child molesters or those who practice bestiality, and promote violence against us. There is no need to be politically correct about it. That's HATE, plain and simple, and the dictionary defines it as it is. Yes, HATE is a hurtful word, but HURT is what they do to us, so why should be be timid about it?
It's so one-sided... We're not in their face to turn straight people gay, all we want is equal rights.
Fighting back with strong language is an effective weapon, and the article says so -- kudos to those companies who dissociate themselves with the hate groups. As such, we should embrace and amplify the message that the word says.
