Is Obama now for marriage equality? At “The Family” Prayer Breakfast, the President denounced the “kill gays” legislation in Uganda and let slip he “disagrees” with their stance on same-sex marriage.
Blogger Michael Lehet joins us to take a look at the hot news: Prada fashion model Nick Snider offers a “get out of jail free blow job,” NBC Black History month Fried Chicken menu controversy, and Oscar the Death Cat.
Is Obama now saying he’s for marriage equality? At yesterday’s Prayer Breakfast held by the evil covert group known as “The Family,” both President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton condemned the organizations ties to the “kill gays” legislation in Uganda.
President Obama called the bill “odious” and remarkably stated “We may disagree about gay marriage, but surely we can agree that it is unconscionable to target gays and lesbians for who they are — whether it’s here in the United States or … most recently in Uganda.” Well, if “The Family” is against gay marriage and he disagrees with them, does that means he’s for it?

This well-written and detailed article gives some great insight on what’s been going on with the DADT policy. Agree or not, it’s fascinating behind-the-scenes stuff. Read the whole thing to understand it.
Last night, President Obama reiterated his pledge to repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” but as many bloggers have noted, he could have issued a stop/loss order to stop the anti-gay purges on Day 1 when…

Here’s a letter we just got from Mr. President but where’s his stance on DADT or Marriage Equality?
Fausto –
I just finished delivering my first State of the Union, and I wanted to send you a quick note.
We face big and difficult challenges. Change on the scale we seek does not come easily. But I will never accept second place for the United States of America.
That is why I called for a robust jobs bill without delay. It’s why I proposed a small businesses tax credit, new investments in infrastructure, and pushed for climate legislation to create a clean energy economy.
It’s why we’re taking on big banks, reforming Wall Street, revitalizing our education system, increasing transparency — and finishing the job on health insurance reform.
It’s why I need your help — because I am determined to fight to defend the middle class, and special interest lobbyists will go all out to fight us.
Help me show that the American people are ready to join this fight for the middle class — add your name to a letter to Congress today:

We have finished a difficult year. We have come through a difficult decade. But we don’t quit. I don’t quit.
Let’s seize this moment — to start anew, to carry the dream forward, and to strengthen our union once more.

GLEE star JANE LYNCH has hit out at U.S. President BARACK OBAMA for not making gay marriages legal across America – branding the country’s leader “a huge disappointment”.
The openly gay actress, who has won rave reviews for her turn as tough cheerleading Coach SueSylvester in the hit show, insists the decision to ban gay marriage in California in 2008 shouldn’t have taken place – because the majority don’t have the right to vote on the lives the minority.
And Lynch is angry Obama hasn’t stepped up to allow gay marriage across the U.S. – comparing the ongoing battle to the civil rights movement in ’60s America.
She tells Britain’s Guardian newspaper, “Shouldn’t there be safeguards against the majority voting on the rights of a minority? If people voted on civil rights in the ’60s, it would have never happened. It took somebody like (U.S. President) Lyndon Johnson going, ‘F all of you! I’m going to do this.’ Obama won’t do it. He’s a huge disappointment to me.”

Barack Obama and his dramatic ascent to power has inspired a raft of books and articles. Now a German musical is set to pay an all-singing, all-dancing tribute to the world’s most powerful man. Hope!…
What a miserable year! As 2009 comes to an end, we’re reminded of what a terrible year it was for not just the nation, but for gay people as well.
But it’s not all bad. 2009 was also a year where millions of people felt empowered to stand up and say “I want my rights” and a lot of people had some sexy good times. Comedian Adam Guerino joins us to find the healing power of laughter inside all the misery. Listen as we look at the impact of the ugly Christmas sweater on this holiday season and the worst Christmas presents ever given.
What a miserable year! As 2009 comes to an end, we’re reminded of what a terrible year it was for not just the nation, but for gay folks as well.
Our hopes for the equality promised by President Obama were dashed as hate ran rampant across the world. What happened?
Blogger Alicia Eller at Chicago Now comprised a list of “The Top 25 Homophobic Moments of 2009″ and it’s getting a lot of traffic. Some of the highlights include- Carrie Prejean’s opposite marriage, manipulative sports officials leaking the inter-sex status of champion Semenaya, and politicians caving into the demands of fundamentalists with regards to marriage equality.
But it’s not all bad- 2009 was also a year where millions of people felt empowered to stand up and say “I want my rights.” More people came out of the closet and a lot of people had some sexy good times.

Obama Gets a D+ for World AIDS Day
Washington, DC—On the eve of World AIDS Day, global AIDS and Africa solidarity organizations released a report card today evaluating President Obama’s first year in office—giving the President and his Administration a ‘D+’ for work so far.
“With new data showing that worldwide the number one killer of women of reproductive age is HIV, aggressive scale up of AIDS treatment is needed more than ever for the health of communities,” said Asia Russell, Health GAP Director of International Policy. “We are disappointed to report that on his first World AIDS Day in office, President Obama has not made good on his promises to increase funding for effective, life saving programs to fight AIDS around the world.”
The report, released by Health GAP, Africa Action, Treatment Action Group and Global AIDS Alliance states: “This report card gives President Obama a ‘D+’ for his first year as president. This assessment contrasts his one-year record to the promises he made to get elected, and takes into account the areas where some progress has been made, particularly on HIV prevention and support for integration of reproductive health and HIV prevention and treatment.
