Is that in reference to me? I certainly don't think I ever said any such thing.

I hope they never find out he steps on ants, too !! :rolleyes:

I'm not sure about all this political discussion. I come here for invigorating discussions of Disney, Bacon, Sex and general Kevy bashing.

I'm confused by the title. Are we free to discuss Obama here, or just his lavish parties?

He's throwing a big gay party, too ... um, tomorrow (6/25) for the "big" gays, whoever they are, to commemorate the Stonewall 40th anniversary ... and hoping to molify all the LGBT outrage with a few free cocktails and snacks. Free drinks have always worked to loosen up the dollars before, so he's hoping this will restore the workings of the gAyTM.

Um, fat chance, President Fierce Advocate.

If Nixon could target the big Jews, Obama can target the big gays.
I believe they would be David Geffen, Ellen, Rosie, Neil Patrick Harris and the fiercely private David Hyde Pierce. Oprah will probably be invited as well--just because she's Oprah.

No, it's not all about you, Leo. :p

This is a reference to the fine film PCU, about protestors who protest everything. If you haven't seen it, I recommend it.

Oh please, like that's a valid defense.

Well, my egocentrist self aside, it was posted right after my post. :p

President Barack Obama referenced prejudice against gays, Latinos, and Muslims in his first major address to an African-American audience Thursday night at the centennial celebration of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Obama told the audience that there might be "a temptation among some to think that discrimination is no longer a problem in 2009."
"But make no mistake," he continued, "the pain of discrimination is still felt in America. By African-American women paid less for doing the same work as colleagues of a different color and gender. By Latinos made to feel unwelcome in their own country. By Muslim Americans viewed with suspicion for simply kneeling down to pray. By our gay brothers and sisters, still taunted, still attacked, still denied their rights.
"On the 45th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act, discrimination must not stand. Not on account of color or gender; how you worship or who you love. Prejudice has no place in the United States of America."

Okay, now he just has to do something about it. He could start by stopping the firings in HIS army.
