Let's just call it like it is: Anybody who is energized by Obama's recent announcement is simply a useful idiot who is being duped by a distraction.
Well I'm a bisexual American and I was somewhat energized by the fact that Barack Obama supports rights for LGBT Americans. I'm mostly viewing this as a step in the right direction - it's part of an ever growing trend of a change in attitudes towards gay and bisexual people that's been taking place since probably about 2010 now.
Oh well, I guess I am a useful idiot.
