Oh, Goodie Goodie!

MoveOn.Org wrote to me, asking for money for some damn cause that wasn't about my biggest cause: full rights for the GLBT community.
There was a place to make suggestions, and here's the suggestion I made.
If you decide to do the same, send it to me and I'll post your letter here.

Dear MoveOn Friends,

I and many of my friends in the GLBT community are growing increasingly disgusted with the president's inaction on the campaign promises he made us about eliminating Don't ask/Don't tell, DOMA and other issues.
As a self-proclaimed "fierce advocate" of GLBT rights, as it stands he is to the right of the state of Iowa and Dick Cheney.
His recent, watered-down gesture, the memorandum about partners of federal employees, is weak for obvious reasons.
Until he starts making serious strides on our behalf, millions of GLBT people will consider ourselves conned into voting for, donating to and campaigning for just another phony politician who'll say anything to get elected.

Sincerely,
Karen Zipdrive
