Libertarians more credible than Democrats on Gay Rights
Libertarians fight to break cycle of battered gay voter syndrome
"President Obama and the Democrats had almost a year of complete control of the federal government: the Presidency, the House, and a filibuster-proof 60 votes in the Senate. They could have repealed 'don't ask don't tell.' They could have gotten rid of the Defense of Marriage Act. But they didn't do either of those things. That's a complete and total betrayal of all the promises they made to gay and lesbian voters for years."
I'm a registered Independent, not a Libertarian party member, though obviously my political leanings are their direction, and I don't try to hide that fact. But, I think they have a very good point here, and I wanted to share it.
