A Family Celebration
I’m glad they had the White House Easter Egg Roll after all. I half expected that — with the foreknowledge that (gasp!) about 200 gay and lesbian parents would be bringing their children — the White House wingnuts would use the dreary weather as an excuse to cancel the whole thing.
Of course, it wasn’t completely without incident, as about a half-dozen closeted homosexuals decided to mount a protest (and were apparently supported by an unnamed “soldier” — definitively demonstrating that there are homosexuals in the military as well, hidden though they may be). But still, it was nice to see that, lunatics aside, the thing didn’t devolve into some mass protest event. The whole point was to show that gay and lesbian parents are normal, and not some caricature.
