Discouraged

Between politics and propoganda, it seems nothing is getting done on marriage equality or DADT. These issues are mired in political in-fighting and religious wackiness.
Personally, I've lost enthusiasm--probably because one of my brothers was just diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor. Putting things in perspective and giving them time lines, makes me realize as he has sped up the fight for his life, all gay issues seem to be constantly slowed down, put on the back burner--luke warm and shoved aside, hoping that they will go away. And then there's the Dream Act--pass it, please.
Discouraged.
