Gays are Still Feeling Obama


And I thought it was just me...

A national survey conducted online shows that 67% of LGBT adults say that the country is going in the right direction, compared to 45% of straight adults. The poll shows an 11-point increase in approval among LGBT respondents from June to August.

LGBT respondents also appeared more confident about their personal financial outlook, with 57% saying they expect the economy to improve in the next year; among heterosexual adults, 45% shared that expectation.

The survey also found that 69% of gays rate President Barack Obama's overall handling of the economy as excellent or pretty good. Only 38% of heterosexual adults agree with their assessment. Further, more than four out of five LGBT adults trust the president to do what is right going forward for the American economy, compared to 60% of straight adults.
That's cute. Now, I wonder what the results would be if the survey talked about Obama's stance on LGBT rights. I bet that would be interesting to see.

I still support him totally. My only gripe is that he's trying too hard to include the GOP in matters that are important.
FUCK Republicans Mr. President. Do what the majority of us elected you to do.
As it is I am assured by him simply because he is working very hard. Bush was always at camp David on vacation.
