I'm finally convinced

[malaise]

DUers will never be satisfied.
Is it possible that we can celebrate this historic day without all the usual complaints.

Good effing grief!!!

1. A message board wouldn't be so much fun

if we all agreed with each other.

Plus, I could care less if folks complain either way. It's their right.

2. You're kidding, right???

[babylonsister]

3. No kidding! Just ignore the

curmudgeons; I do.

Usually.

4. I think what our Prez did today is going to make the repubs very shook up

If they go after Obama over this they will look bad to most people.
If they back what Obama did, they will lose face with their constituents.
His timing is good, there's many months until the election.
He drew a line and the repubs will have to choose which side to stand on.

5. I hope they do go after him.

There are quite a few gay republicans (no I will NOT capitalize) but the right wing does not like them. I hope the repukes scream and holler their heads off about Obama being pro marriage equality. They will look like the true a**h***s they are.

Edited because of typos for thinking faster than my fingers could type.

6. it can be a sobering experience in our community

to try and maintain optimism.

7. With the recent NC vote, and all the shit the GBLTIQ community has to put up with everyday,

I think the "usual complaints" are very well justified.

8. WTF do I know

I'm just a straight woman celebrating a historic day for equal rights.

[progressoid]

10. WTF, as long as you live in a state that lets you have equal rights.

[Bruce Wayne]

9. This is a totally lame complaint...

...about how lame your complaint is.

Okay, I'm done griping.

[brettdale]

11. when the most powerful man on earth

Makes a statement like this, the world should celebrate, this is historic.

[malaise]

12. That's all I ask

[mucifer]

13. It's a discussion board. It's not an agreement board.

People have the right to express how they feel in here. I learn from reading posts. I wouldn't if disagreement wasn't allowed here.

I'm learning more lurking today in the LGBT forum. It opens my little mind more. It's a good thing.

[Marr]

14. I'm convinced that some will *always* be satisfied.

For myself, I would never consider *words* from a politician to be historic in and of themselves. Especially not in an election season, and especially not from this particular politician. We'll see where he goes with this in the future, and I hope to have reason to cheer my head off for him next year.

15. You said it.

DUers will never be satisfied.

Maybe you should try to find some satisfaction in the usual complaints. I can, and do.
