The Center for American Progress, the liberal think tank close to the Obama administration, has posted a blog entry headlined "Obama Stands By His LGBT Nominees Under Attack From the Right." The Center says that President Obama, in his speech to the Human Rights Campaign Saturday night, "strongly reiterated his support" for Kevin Jennings, head of the Education Department's Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools, as well as for Chai Feldblum, a lesbian law professor nominated to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission -- although Obama did not mention either Jennings or Feldblum by name.

I think it would be very telling if Obama let him stand behind him. Notice he is not doing that.

Kinda reminds one of the scene atop Lenins Tomb. All the embassies watched the arangement to see who was IN and who was OUT.

The law never applies to the elites.

When are you going to understand that?

It's sad, but I don't think my children would understand the point of your post.

Although they have read about the Soviet Union, fall of the Berlin Wall, and know about communist oppression, the subtlety of your observation would be completely missed by them.

He doesn't want Kevin behind him murmuring “Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmm, mmm”

Actually, I think everyone missed the point of my post. Does he want kevin Jennings standing behind him or not? I bet he certainly won’t bend over.
