186. "You stated that you don't know any feminists who support Clinton."-- I did?

Where?

Where did *I* say that?

Please, find it. I'll wait.

You "know" that Obama has a problem with Gay people- why? McClurkin? That thing has been beaten to death. For the record, I didn't like it either. But to extrapolate from that one data point to "Obama has a serious problem with Gay People" is a gimungous fucking stretch.

Has anyone told Steve Hildebrand, Obama's Deputy Campaign Manager, about Obama's "serious problem with gay people"? Hildebrand would probably want to know, seeing as he's gay himself.

Obama DIRECTLY addresses LGBT supporters and issues on his website:

Does Hillary acknowledge LGBT issues on her website? If she does, it's not very easy to find.


He was wrong about McClurkin, but there is no evidence to say that he's not at least as committed to LGBT equality as Senator Clinton is. Neither of them are willing to come out for full marriage equality yet, and that's to both their shame. But to try to say that Obama has a "serious problem with gay people" is utter baloney.
