Obama fails on gay rights

They didn't use those exact words, of course, but in a group statement signed by the Human Rights Campaign, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, Lambda Legal, the ACLU, and other big national organizations—organizations that are typically cautious and concerned about preserving their access—they come as close to "FUCK YOU" as they're ever going to get.
Basically, they are telling Obama to go fuck himself over his position reversal regarding the Defense of Marriage Act. During the campaign he said it should be repelled. Now he wants to keep it in place. Obama reversing positions on liberal issues? Quelle surprise.
To win the Presidency, all the Democratic Party had to do was completely sell out. I'm at the point where I'm thinking that they can not bother calling me for a top of the ticket vote until 2016.
