Enter "heterosexual privilege."

That's analogous to saying that "white privilege" is what allows whites to critique Obama because they have the privilege to be more concerned with "other stuff" while Blacks are busy rejoicing that he's in office and perceptually furthering Black socio-political advancement.

Nah, the real point is that people don't critique when they agree but will shit fire when they don't agree. And they'll also act like it's a DUH moment when they don't agree as though what they eat should make everyone else shit. Then they'll pretend as though EVERYONE should suddenly know and acknowledge what the issue is with this President.

Thus, the cycle of political thinking. And let the record show that I never said I disagree with the practice of allowing same-sex partners to have hospital visits and hospitals getting out of the dark ages regarding that. But, agreeing or disagreeing with that is a SURFACE-level construct.
