Barack Obama, June 5, 2006

And I should say that personally, I do believe that marriage is between a man and a woman.

Just in case y'all think he's a friend to the gays.

Well, what I look for in a politician is how they will vote or enact laws DESPITE how they feel personally. He may not LIKE gay marriage, but will he allow it? Who knows. Hillary is no better on this issue. Given what we have been living with for the past 8 years, I have to believe that things will get better for us when a Dem is in office (and yeah, I know all the fukt crap B Clinton did to us). God, it has to get better. Both Obama and Clinton have said they support immigration rights for gay couples, and I have to hold onto that hope since right now there is no way for me to keep my partner here after she finishes school.

I agree that I hope that things will be better if a Dem is in office. Hope. No guarantee. Not from any of them. Especially since we all learned a lesson when B. Clinton heavily courted the HRC and then pushed through all of that crap legislation. I just don't know why so many people are so convinced that Obama is pro-gay. Neither of them are going to come out and say they're pro-gay. It's like a political death sentence. But I think this quote goes too far.

And yeah, I hope for that for you also. xo

We had no immigration rights in the US or the UK so we moved to Canada.
