Lots of updates on our blog swarm of HRC over DADT

As you may know, Joe and I joined a group of other top progressive bloggers, both gay and straight, in a blog swarm today, calling on the largest gay rights group, the Human Rights Campaign, to publicly demand that President Obama take the lead on repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell this year. There's growing concern on Capitol Hill, and in the gay community, over the White House's refusal to signal that it wants DADT repealed this year. Here are a few of our posts, over on AMERICAblog Gay.

Our original post about the blog swarm. A blog swarm is basically a group of blogs all agreeing to write about the same topic on a particular day, in an effort to get it attention.

The gay magazine, the Advocate, reports on our swarm.

Pam Spaulding weighs in.

Michelangelo Signorile weighs in too.

A local HRC affiliate weighs in, and tries to deflect the blame away from the President.

Lots of other blogs and bloggers weigh in, including DailyKos, Taylor Marsh, TowleRoad, David Mixner, and Bilerico.
