WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama is taking heat from some gays and lesbians for not fulfilling campaign pledges. He's also taking their cash.
Gay rights activists have complained that Obama has not followed through on his promises to repeal a law banning their open service in the military, to do away with a federal marriage law or to champion their causes from the White House. During his first five months, he's taken incremental steps that have little real effect and left some people feeling betrayed.
