Obama Extends Benefits to Gay Workers

AP: President Barack Obama signaled to gay rights activists Wednesday that he's listening to their priorities by extending some benefits to same-sex partners of federal employees. But he didn't give them even close to everything they want, bringing growing anger against the president to the surface.

Your right about the AIDS not stopping. I have no problem with this if they live as man and man, women and women, man and women or women and man. If they are a couple living together so be it. I don’t think it is right but I don’t have a problem with the benefits. I say this because I hope this will shut them up. Gay pride is not something to be proud of. I would like to know who is in front or back.
