Evolve already, Mr. President!  

LEAD, FOLLOW, OR GET OUT OF THE WAY ON DOMA.

"Bradford Wells and Australian Anthony John Makk, who have lived together for 19 years and were married seven years ago in Massachusetts, have lost their battle with U.S. immigration and DOMA, the SF Chronicle reports.

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services denied Makk's application to be considered for permanent residency as a spouse of an American citizen, citing the 1996 law that denies all federal benefits to same-sex couples.

The decision was issued July 26. Immigration Equality, a gay-rights group that is working with the couple, received the notice Friday and made it public Monday. Makk was ordered to depart the United States by Aug. 25. Makk is the sole caregiver for Wells, who has severe health problems."

Evolve?

A man of African descent and you're using the term "evolve"?

It's suddenly OK to use simian/primate allusions when refering to the nation's first half-non-white president?

So, if in the future, we conservatives feel the president's policies lack a certain timeliness we are at liberty to affix the verb "evolve" without fear of recrimination.

BTW - It should be noted that homosexuals do not evolve as they do not reproduce.

I just sorta found that ironic.
