Thanks again Melanie for putting an eloquent voice on what we feel. Please keep writing and giving exposure to UAFA… We need to get Congress to move on UAFA this year — who knows what will happen in the mid-year elections. We have already lost a good friend in Chris Dodd who has announced his retirement… I think that this year is our best shot, we need to pull out all the stops and push for our rights to be recognized!

Thanks, Melanie, for giving voice to the opinions that SO many of us hold in the LGBT community. Your tireless passion and dedication to ALL LGBT causes, but especially LGBT-inclusive immigration reform, is an inspiration to me and helps motivate me to do the work I can do… Thanks for sharing your opinions, thanks for using a public forum responsibly (and effectively) — heck, just thanks for everything! PS — BIG kudos for “Zeroes” amongst our own.

Joe how do you relate this to Heros and Zeros? There is no referemce to race in this piece?

By: Joe Polasky

It is just possible that opposition to the President’s policies are based on principled political disagreements and not race.
I am only surprised that it took the left the better part of a year before they began to play the race game in earnest. The new left suffers from schizophrenia as it pertains to race. They claim to want to move past race in this country, but are reluctant to do so. Race provides them with a sense of security; they believe that through race they are able to keep their emotional and moral equilibrium. And because the left is emotionally tied to race it is a potent political weapon the use of which power seekers and power keepers will not soon relinquish.

UPDATE see quote from Fellow Blogger at Petrelis Files – http://mpetrelis.blogspot.com/2009/12/hrc-gave-15k-to-rep-gutierrez-who.html

“Rachel Tiven’s FEC files show she gave $250 in June 2009 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and an additional $4,457 to Democrats since 2004. She should ask theDCCC for a refund, and in the process generate some mainstream news and attention from gay bloggers and newspapers, for showing some spine against the Democrats who are failing to advance gay rights.”
