TIME Magazine’s “Officer X” comes out
On May 25, Time magazine introduced the world to “Officer X,” a closeted, active service member who would blog anonymously about the DADT repeal until it got repealed.
Well DADT has been repealed, so who is he?
It’s 1st Lieutenant Karl Johnson of the Air Force.
In his coming-out article Johnson said, “Putting aside personal angst, there was the risk [that DADT] posed to our national security; with Don’t Ask Don’t Tell ended, the possibility of extortion evaporates. Our nation will be stronger because of the policy’s demise.”
His posts have been thoughtful, inspiring and courageous.
Thank you Lt. Karl Johnson.
Video: “When Kurt Met Blaine”
For all the GLEE fans who imagine a movie version of Kurt and Blaine’s relationship…

Quote for the day: President Obama
“I mean has anybody been watching the debates lately? You’ve got a governor whose state is on fire denying climate change. It’s true. You’ve got audiences cheering at the prospect of somebody dying because they don’t have healthcare. And booing a service member in Iraq because they’re gay. That’s not reflective of who we are.”

If you don’t follow her yet – start. She has some great stuff – sometimes funny, sometimes just plain positive.

Rick Perry dogged on Fox News panel
Now, when FOX News thinks you didn’t do well – “He really did throw up all over himself” – you know you didn’t do well.
And when Herman Cain wins the Florida straw poll, you’ve just got to take a time out and ponder where you went wrong…
Poor Gov. Bangbang…
