I have to tell you that over the course of several years as I have talked to friends and family and neighbors when I think about members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together, when I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage, at a certain point I’ve just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same sex couples should be able to get married.

If you’ve got student loans, you’re going to want to watch this video.
President Obama just took two major steps to make life easier for people with student loans, and there’s a good chance you or someone you know will benefit from them really soon. After you’ve watched, tweet/re-blog/Facebook it to get out the good word.
Was that really that hard? Nice job. So far, loans from the government are approaching 1 trillion dollars. Any work we can do to help mitigate that can help. This is pretty huge. Maybe we can bring back economic hardship deferment? :-D

President Barack Obama criticises Republican silence on booing of gay soldier. (youtube link)
He needs to bust out that face and finger more often, it just screams “I have had. enough. of. you.”

The Takeaway: Five years after the show went off the air, producers and stars of “Arrested Development” have confirmed: The Bluth family is making a comeback. Rumors have been flying about the show’s return since it was canceled. On Sunday, producer Mitchell Hurwitz joined the cast for a reunion and made a surprise announcement.
He said they are going to “not only bring the characters back in a movie,” Dave Itzkoff of The New York Times told PRI’s The Takeaway. ”He wants to do a sort of preliminary, limited-run TV series of about 9 or 10 episodes that would reintroduce all the characters and show where they’ve been, and then that would lead into the movie.”

Last year, American companies posted their biggest profits ever, and bonuses for bank and hedge fund executives not only reached record highs, but grew faster than corporate revenue. Meanwhile, almost one in 10 Americans is unemployed, and 15 percent live at or below the poverty level.
As a progressive activist who has marched against many wars, I try to avoid militant rhetoric. But only “class warfare” accurately describes a situation in which 400 people control more wealth than the poorest 150 million Americans combined. If “class warfare” isn’t the richest of the rich fighting tooth and nail against unions and any tax increases while record numbers of people lose their homes, what is?
President Obama shouldn’t be afraid of a little class warfare - Washington Post, 9/23/11
- This article offers solid historical analysis of the economic situation, and some interesting guidance for creating social change.
