Obama addresses the LGBT community…
On his side again. What a moving speech. No international news channel broadcast this (except for a tiny bit in BBC International). They should have really. This message of change should’ve gotten across to the world because it’s not just an American issue, it’s an international issue. When the world listen to one of the most loved public figures the world over say such things they might realize that this is a issue of concern and look around them. Hate, in any form, should never be accepted. One’s beliefs shouldn’t curtail another person’s road to happiness. Anyway, getting too preachy here. But, you get the point. Click below for the rest of the speech.

Yes, it is here. The National Equality March for the advancement of LGBTQI rights is here. The march is taking place in DC and even as many didn’t know whether to go to Kylie’s concert in NYC or the National Equality March, we have a feeling that it’s going to be a big one and it’s going to rattle some tails, make some noise and annoy a couple of conservatives. Yes, a new era is here, change is here and if you don’t like it, then tough. We have that everyone has a safe and happy protest and that DC shines with rainbows everywhere. We hope is reaches all the corners of the world. Oh, rainbows!
