I’m not a huge fan of Bill Maher, but his piece today on the Huffington Post on Obama’s speech at the HRC dinner tomorrow night and the National Equality March on Sunday might just make me a convert:
I can tell you what the president is going to tell his audience tomorrow: How much he supports them. How much he agrees with them. And how he wishes he was President so he could help them out.
Obama and the Democrats can sweep in under the gaydar and pass real health care and real climate change bills. This is how we fight fire with Fire Island. When Obama speaks tomorrow, he should not only revoke “don’t ask, don’t tell,” but also change our military’s slogan to “An Army of Buns.” And starting next year, gay busing. Yes, if there aren’t any gay families in your community, we’ll bring them to you. Your field hockey team can thank us later.
And when they get out there on Sunday, Gay Nation also needs to do everything in their power to scare the hell out of right-wing homophobes. I want to see you guys rollerblading down the Mall in nothing but a speedo and a nun’s habit, holding a sparkler in one hand and a penis popsicle in the other.
I’ll be there . . . with a popsicle pushcart!
