OPEN LETTER TO EARL OFARI HUTCHINSON: ON GAYS & OBAMA

2009

OBAMA IS A FRENEMY TO GAYS!!!

PRETENDING THAT OBAMA IS OUR FRIEND IS MASOCHISTIC, ARROGANTLY IGNORANT, AND JUST PLAIN POLITICAL SUICIDE!!!

Freedom is not something that anybody can be given.

Freedom is something people take, and people are as free as they want to be.

-James Baldwin

He who is whipped oftenest, is whipped easiest.
 -Frederick Douglass

Earl:

Frederick Douglass and James Baldwin are both spinning simultaneously in their graves because you have dared to disgrace their dual courage and honor by brazenly libeling them in your defense of the cowardly and schizophrenic President Barack Obama/GWB 2.0! Both legendary heroes would NEVER have dismissed the horrid hypocrisies of black gaybashers or Obama’s ongoing serial betrayals of homosexual voters! Baldwin would NEVER tell us to silently wait until Obama belatedly decides to deliver a single political promise to us! Douglas would NEVER tell us to endlessly endure Obama’s abuses in passive silence!

Loyalty trumps lip service. Obama’s loyalty to homosexuals ended the moment he was done pimping our votes to secure his presidential election. He has diligently proven that he is the kind of friend who clones the abuses of our worst enemies.

Please know that we homosexuals do not need you to define whom we should regard as a friend. We choose to embrace political allies based on their actions. Obama’s inaction proves that he is indeed our enemy more each day.

I suggest that you speak to a homosexual before you evaluate what you presume to be our political issues. Millions of us could not care less about gay marriage. We have no desire to join you heterosexuals in the toxic frays of endless brutal divorces and miserable custody battles.

Gay marriage has never been our defining issue with Obama. He has kept NO promises about ANY issue remotely related to equal civil rights for homosexuals. We are not angry at Obama solely due to his failures to secure the legality of gay marriages. Yet, marriage is a human right. Unlike you and Obama, our true friends view our rights as completely equal as they have a complete respect for our equivalent humanity.

Our honeymoon with Obama is officially over because he has failed to deliver a single political promise to us. Like millions of heterosexual voters who can legally marry, we are motivated by the same dejection regarding Obama’s generic ineptitude in achieving a single campaign promise. Like heterosexuals and blacks, homosexuals are NOT a monolith with any singular political agenda!

We are enraged at Obama for his failure to deliver on any significant component of our diverse political agendas. Much like your political advisory skills within your grossly offensive missive to homosexuals, Obama has failed us miserably. His broken promises to date include: the eradication of the military’s bigoted “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” policy; enacting the “Matthew Shepard Hate-Crimes Bill”; and securing insurance benefits for gay spouses of Federal employees. Obama’s failure to repeal the hateful “Defense of Marriage Act” is literally the tip of the iceberg fashioned by a series of Obama’s iciest political betrayals.

Initially, Obama cavalierly embraced the gaybashing homosexual Donnie McClurkin, as they wooed votes from ungodly homohating black church folks on his hypochristian campaign trails. Then, Obama legendarily honored rabid homohater Rick Warren by allowing him to deliver his inaugural prayer as a sacred slap in the faces of millions of homosexual voters. Next, Obama proceeded to begin a third passionate bromance with macho jock gaybasher Tony Dungy, who millions of gays believe may have driven his own homosexual son to suicide.

What I find even more offensive than your bastardization of the legacies of Baldwin and Douglass is your blatant omission of any mention of McClurkin, Warren, or Dungy in your uniquely unintelligent directive. Silence is consent. I see that your own silences are as selective and shady as Obama himself.

Like millions of other wise gays who refuse to be political doormats for Obama, I am absolutely appalled that the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) has chosen to invite him to tell homosexuals more lies. It is akin to inviting Don Imus to speak at a black hair show. It is as painfully awkward as inviting Tony Dungy to speak at a PFLAG convention. It is as senseless as inviting Donnie McClurkin to host one of his suicidal “workshops”, which teach gay men to be abusive down-low adulterers, to speak at a Black Gay Pride rally. It is as vulgar as choosing Rick Warren to pastor a gay wedding.

Obama has similarly betrayed millions of other voters even more than he has dogged homosexuals. They include countless teachers who loathe the academic genocide of NCLB, millions of Latinos seeking immigration reform, and millions of newly homeless foreclosed black and Latino homeowners. Obama’s perpetual betrayals are indeed his only tangible deeds to date.

We homosexuals never requested invitations to Obama’s White House parties. We expected to share his alleged passion for actual change in DC. We do not need his cocktails. We demand his courage. I doubt that Obama would have accepted an invitation from the National Black Justice Coalition as readily as he did this confusing one from the HRC. He has typically and infamously avoided other black and black gay events to date.

Millions of blacks rejected Colin Powell and Condoleeza Rice as proof of racial progressiveness from the racist King Shrub/George W. Bush. His racist antics trumped his largesse to black neocons within his cabinet. Likewise, Obama’s token gay appointees do not authenticate his friendship to homosexuals.

As Obama continues to openly cater exclusively to ultra rich white men, the poorest Blacks continue to coddle and excuse his genocidal and elitist antics. Why expect homosexuals to be equally masochistic? The equal right to be coddling clones of Obama’s black bone catchers and political doormats is not the equality we homosexuals seek!
