Bootstraps and @ltdanchoi #dadt

This is the kind of messaging that appeals to the center, right, or the right of the left (fearless fakers). It infuriates me. Look how hard Dan Choi worked - talk about pulling yourself up by your bootstraps and extreme and consistent effort - and then he gets fired for being gay. WTF Obama????

I totally understand the magnitude and urgency of hard work and effort.  However, any “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” speech - especially targeted towards America’s youth and given by a Democrat - should include at least some reference to the fundamental impact of the many discrepancies related to opportunity and a plethora of “isms”.  You can call me a bleeding heart…  but I may stop calling Obama a Democrat.
