A Pattern has emerged

2009 - Many DU'ers banned for being vocal about gay rights, and the displeasure of Obama's anti-gay friends - after the election in which Obama got 90% of LGBT vote
2011 - "Fence-mending" - Obama needs cash and votes
2013 - Obama re-elected. Gays are back to being DU pariahs.

So, will there be fence mending in 2015?

DEI here. Nice to see you on here, if you are from ASFN.

Please elaborate on the problem you have identified. I think this is a very friendly place for LGBT. I think that equality is pretty much consensus around here. Am I missing something? As you can see, I'm not a grizzled veteran of this board....
