For some time I've felt that Barack Obama is more than willing to throw LGBT Americans under the bus whenever he deems it convenient. Yet he remains confident that most of us in the LGBT community will vote for his re-election simply because the other options are all far worse. It's a case of picking a mild poison versus something that might be fatal. The chart above prepared by MarriageEquality.org demonstrates why Obama can hold such a mindset and continue to treat LGBT Americans as less than full citizens. It's a sad statement on the political landscape in the USA.
