I just donated to Organizing for America
Which might come as a surprise given that (a) I don't have much on me and (b) I haven't exactly found myself in agreement with Obama on his (in)action on GLBT issues.

You see, it's one thing to wish Obama was as fierce an advocate for GLBT rights (read: human rights) as he has claimed to be. It's another thing to let my disappointment in him - strong though it may be - stop me from joining with him to push for real change on other issues.

I cannot let my ego get in the way of my desire to see to it that every human being across this land has health coverage.
