Lieutenant Dan Choi is being fired because of his orientation. Lt. Choi acknowledges that he is one of tens of thousands, but we recognize him as a symbol of everything that’s wrong with this policy. A West Point grad, infantry officer, Arabic linguist, and Iraq vet – whose soldiers know he is gay, and support him – is being dismissed.
Knights Out is calling for a day of action on behalf of Lt. Choi and all those who are affected by the anti-gay Don't Ask Don't Tell policy.
On Tuesday, May 12, call the White House at 202-456-1111.

I am so sorry that this president has turned out to be a coward and phony when it comes to equality for all. He is a big disappointment. His silence on our issues is disgraceful coming from a man who actively pursued our donations and votes.
When people kept saying "Support the brother, vote for Obama" I kept thinking that it would be awful if he got into office on our backs and then turned out to be like the others...
My worst nightmare come true.
