It's a good month

Esp. in light of the assassination of Dr. Tiller this pleases me no end.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2009 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month. I call upon the people of the United States to turn back discrimination and prejudice everywhere it exists.

The explanation for the proclamation is really good, but this is the meat of it.

I've got a good month for a birthday, and it's better now.
