I know Hillary isn't perfect on issues relating to GLBT people. Yes, DOMA and DADT are odious. And I hope that a Obama adminstration or a Hillary Clinton adminstration will work to repeal these discriminatory policies.

But the "ex-gay" movement has no place in our political system. I don't give a damn if the Donnie McClurkins of the world decide to try to "change" their sexual orientation. Hell, if they can delude themselves into doing it, whatever. Just don't prey on people genuinely conflicted with their sexual orientations. And goddammit, don't prey on gay and lesbian youth who are dealing with their sexuality.

And I'll go one farther...I encourage the Obama AND Clinton campaigns to condemn this odious, abusive movement that is nothing but bigotry.

Again, thanks.
