In the midst of the anger from LGBT community over the DOJ DOMA defense brief that equated same-sex marriage with pedophilia and incest and the inadequate response to that anger by the Obama Administration and that Administrations total lack of substantive action on concrete LGBT issues … LGBT broadcaster Michelangelo Signorile and Blogger John Aravosis are reporting that it sounds as if gay leaders have been invited to a party at the White House thrown just for them at the end of this month and are warning that leadership it would be unwise for them to attend.

And second, the White House hopes that a little champagne and fancy food will convince the A-listers to throw the rest of you overboard.
