		<description><![CDATA[Gay families attended the Easter Egg hunt at the White House, which is nice symbolic gesture, but will it be enough to convince Congress to repeal DADT &#038; DOMA? Will it be enough to get the Mathew Shepard Bill passed? Will President Obama even request Congress to do those things, or will it be like Bill Clinton, all show, and no action. Can Obama wield enough power, to get Congress to do the right thing, to insure equal rights for everyone, or will it fall on deaf ears, as it has in the past? ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While it may not happen often in Canada, it does happen. People get attacked because they are Gay, but at least in Canada they are protected under the Hate Crime Laws, something most Gays DO NOT ENJOY IN THE USA. It makes you wonder, when did Government forget its obligation is to protect ALL OF ITS CITIZENS? Hate Crime Laws shouldn't be needed, but they are, and yet Bush and Republicans refuse to acknowledge that Gays need protecting. When do the American people wake up, and stop  promoting racism, under the guise of religion?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The US Senate has passed a Foreign Relations Aid Package, that increases the amount of money available for AIDS/HIV treatment in Africa. In fact they have basically TRIPLED the amount, and expect it will not be sidetracked by either the House of Representatives or the White House. This new package throws $50 Billion towards African [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was an article about how Senator Barack Obama is not making himself available to the GLBT Media, as much as he is to the Mainstream Media. In fact one gay publication printed a blank page, to protest their inability to get time with the popular Politician. So even as the Obama campaign held out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They sure can talk the talk, but when it comes to action, The Democratic Party is really no different than the Republican Party. They only pass what benefits THEM, or their CORPORATE MASTERS, not what is Right, not what is BEST. The Democrats have removed the attached Mathew Shepard Bill from the latest Spending Bill [...]]]></description>
