“I’d like to see Obama dance with another man at one of the balls. Michelle Obama danced with Ellen [DeGeneres] on her show. Why can’t Obama? I think he’d do it. Also, bring in [state Rep.] Babette Josephs to speak about the importance of gay rights.”

“Let the Gay Men’s Chorus sing ‘Hail to the Chief,’ with new gay-themed lyrics. And Obama should wear a rainbow pin on his lapel. He says he’s for change. I’m a little tired of his American-flag pins.”

“Invite a gay poet to recite a beautiful poem that everyone can enjoy and relate to. We’re all people, going through similar struggles. And the Obamas should announce that they’ve hired a fabulous gay interior decorator to redo the entire White House!”
