O-day +157: Their Eyes are Opening

What do you get when you believe the promises of a politician on the campaign trail? Exactly what you deserve.

WASHINGTONPresident Barack Obama is taking heat from some gays and lesbians for not fulfilling campaign pledges. He's also taking their cash.

Gay rights activists have complained that Obama has not followed through on his promises to repeal a law banning their open service in the military, to do away with a federal marriage law or to champion their causes from the White House. During his first five months, he's taken incremental steps that have little real effect and left some people feeling betrayed.

Not enough people are waking up and realizing what they have put into the White House.

When they do, the obama-machine will be so firmly entrenched--including in the Supreme Court--that all will do "what they are told."

(Well, almost all, because there are those who do not like to live under these conditions and . . . )
