And every time someone posts it, it sticks in my craw a bit more. Especially this quote.

Part of the reason that we have had a faith outreach in our campaigns is precisely because I don’t think the LGBT community or the Democratic Party is served by being hermetically sealed from the faith community and not in dialogue with a substantial portion of the electorate, even though we may disagree with them.

Uh, does he not know that:

a) there are a LOT of LGBT people in the "faith community", (whatever the fuck that is, there are queers of every faith but the consistent conflating of evangelical Christianity and faith is another rant for another post) and I guarantee there were more than a few in the audience that night when McChickenhead started clucking his nonsense.

b) there is no dialogue to be had with people who want you to convert or die. Believe me I've been trying for about 10 years, with my own family. The way Obama constantly makes this shit sound like people arguing over whether or not Wolverine could kick Batman's ass never fails to piss me off. These assholes who "disagree" with homosexuality, WTF is there to disagree about? That's like "disagreeing" with the fact that some people are left-handed or born with red hair. We are LGBT, we deserve equality under the law, end of fucking discussion.
