Gay military families intentionally excluded from launch of First Lady's military families initiative

For two weeks a gay group tried to get the White House to invite a real live gay person to Mrs. Obama's event honoring the families of service members. The White House refused. The First Lady's office even had the audacity to claim that DADT tied their hands, which was absurd, since the White House invited representatives of groups serving straight military families, why couldn't they have invited a representative of a gay group, someone who was already retired (thus no DADT problem)? It was suggested that they do just that, and the White House refused.

So a very happy heterosexual military families day at the White House, courtesy of Michelle Obama.
