Bravo to Australia! Their conservative Prime Minister was defeated by Labour leader Kevin Rudd. The Labour Party will support changes to the law that discriminates against gay couples in their tax & benefits system. A report in June by Australia's Human Rights & Equal Opportunity Commission (HREOC) recommended that 58 laws need to be changed for LGBT Australians to have equal rights. Next to the USA, Australia has become our largest group of visitors here @ OUTTAKEonline. We are proud to support your country's advancement & hopefully gay marriage will be in your future.
When Obama was on the campaign trail he promised that if elected he would end DOMA & "Don't Ask Don't Tell." He would pass ENDA & The Matthew Shepard Hate Crime Bill. We supported his bid for the White House with $$ & our vote. Election night was bittersweet for our LGBT community. Obama's win brought hope that quickly turned to sadness as 3 more states amended their constitutions to discriminate against our LGBT Americans. In the past few weeks thousands have protested across this country chanting:"Gay, Straight, Black or White, Gay Marriage is an Equal Right" Obama has addressed the economy & bail-outs, his cabinet & some foreign policies but not a peep about our LGBT civil rights.....
Would Jesus Discriminate?

Congratulations to our LGBT community in Connecticut!! Marriage is a basic civil right that should be attainable by all Americans if they choose. Education is key on this issue.

It seems Iraqi leaders are divided over whether to settle with the Bush administration on how quickly U.S. troops will leave & how they’ll operate in the meantime, or bank on a better deal from incoming President Obama. During his pre-election campaign, President elected Obama made the question on withdrawal of the American troops from Iraq as one of the key issues. John Podest, one of the heads of the transitional team of Obama in the White House, said that President Elect Obama intends to adhere to this plan on withdrawal of all US combat subdivisions from Iraq by mid 2010……Happy Veterans Day…..

ENDA passes & we move closer to a Transgender inclusive bill. I'm disappointed that we weren't able to include our entire LGBT community in this round. Actually I witnessed most of the floor activity & was shocked to see how the opposition carried themselves in their suits of bigotry, making speeches against our community in the name of self-righteousness. What are they so afraid of?? We received this statement from Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin.....We hope it provides some understanding.... Updates to come....
