DNC Chair: “Awesome” That Obama’s Gay Marriage Stance Seen as Political Tool
by News Editor
The Hill – Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (Fla.) called it “awesome” Tuesday that favoring same-sex marriage could be viewed as politically expedient, saying it shows advancement in people’s perspective on the issue.
“As someone that represents one of the largest LGBT communities in the country, I think it’s actually awesome that we’ve come so far in advancing the rights of the LGBT community that people would question that it’s a good thing politically for the president of the United States to come out for marriage equality,” said Wasserman Schultz on MSNBC.
