More seriously again for a moment, wrt Warren and so forth:

People For The American Way has a petition going around.

Interesting anecdote at Bilerico wrt how good Warren is at embracing his gay neighbor, with Christian charity, you know.

Also via Bilerico: there are, of course, real and serious new groups/coalitions forming in the wake of Prop 8. Here's one.

ETA: Apparently there's also going to be another reverend at the inauguration. Joseph Lowery, giving the benediction. That's more like it. Too bad he can't be getting the prime spot, attention-wise, but apparently he has the last word.

Obama sold out the gay movement period.

1) No doubt.
2) It could still be worse, and we're still waiting for the actual policy, you know.
3) Who -hasn't-?
4) But seriously, what do you suggest, then?

"Sold out"? He was never pro-gay to begin with.

I'm still hoping he'll prove more progressive on gay issues than Clinton. Time will tell.

I think he'll pretty much have to be, but mainly because it's now well over a decade later.
