1. But you will vote for and support Obama
Edited on Mon Apr-04-11 08:55 AM by Botany
Reason ..... The U.S. Supreme Court and all the Judges on the Federal Bench.
Scalia is 74, Thomas is 63, Kennedy is 74, and Roberts has some kind of neurological problem ....
Gingsburg will not be on the court much longer too.

Citizens United, bush v Gore, and so on have had huge negative effects on America
and the world.



"I am a 24 year old, gay, egalitarian, White male .... "

WASHINGTON — Less than halfway through his first term, President Barack Obama has appointed
more openly gay officials than any other president in history.

Gay activists say the estimate of more than 150 appointments so far – from agency heads and commission
members to policy officials and senior staffers – surpasses the previous high of about 140 reached during
two full terms under President Bill Clinton.

"From everything we hear from inside the administration, they wanted this to be part of their efforts at diversity,"
said Denis Dison, spokesman for the Presidential Appointments Project of the Gay & Lesbian Leadership Institute.
