17. ah the old "one note" canard
which doesn't address the substance of what I wrote, but merely attempts to trivialize what I addressed.

You are correct in that in the past few months, I have focused on the broad array of GLBT concerns, largely because we're no better off than we were a year ago and this administration needs to be public pressured - via letters, phone calls, blogs, message boards, demonstrations - any venue of communication.

To try to demean that effort, which is what one does when one castigates someone as "one note," is effectively showing contempt for the concerns of GLBT voters. My comments are addressed (appropriately) to the Obama administration. Your comments (inappropriately) are addressed to me.

I will continue to focus on these issues until this White House steps up to the plate and begins the process of doing more than offering bromides and talk. I'm damn proud to do so, and there are a lot of my GLBT brothers and sisters who feel as I do.

Sorry you felt the need to malign that effort.
