Hey DU! Can we join the "Dont Ask, Don't Give" Boycott to show solitude for the LGBT Americans?
From Firedoglake:
John and Joe at AmericaBlog are launching a donor boycott of the DNC. We're joining it along with Daily Kos, Dan Savage, Michelangelo Signorile, David Mixner, Andy Towle and Michael Goff of Towle Road, Paul Sousa (Founder of Equal Rep in Boston), Pam Spaulding, Robin Tyler (ED of the Equality Campaign, Inc.), and Bil Browning for the Bilerico Project:

Until the Democratic Congress passes, and President Obama signs, legislation enacting ENDA, repealing DADT, and repealing DOMA, we ask you to join us in pledging to postpone contributions to the Democratic National Committee, Organizing for America, and the Obama campaign.

5. That's an excellent idea
It will get the message quicker to the congress critters that can enact legislation and send a bill quicker to the president's desk so he can sign it.

6. Count me in although I had already deided not to donate to ANY
politician for a while now. I may reconsider regarding Barbara Boxer vs. Carly Fiorina.
