It is, I have lost faith that it will be repealed in my lifetime. I also won't be voting for President Obama in the future. Another Dem perhaps, but not him.

I am pretty upset about this too. He could have just given an executive order.

I tend to have very little faith in our political process for bringing about social justice. I have very little faith in most folks once they reach Washington. Kaine from VA has even discouraged me with his showboating and as Richmond resident ( then/ not now) I found him to be a great city council member then mayor then Gov , but now.. he just seems to be another mouthpiece yammering on.

I pray to see equal rights for the LGBT community in my lifetime, although likewise, I seriously have doubts. I tend to gravitate toward 2012 prophecies before believing politicians will resolve anything.
