Best news I’ve had in a long time…......awesome.

My compliments to Usa people that have voted for Barack Obama!
I hope that Usa Gouvernement way of thinking of today can influence world as it have do in a less good way in the past!
Thanks for sharing this!

It is extraordinary that one man at a particular juncture of history can contribute so powerfully to change the world. Live your life and be strong – the world it is a changing.

A well balanced man, what the world needs in leadership, a person to think humanely.

Such a positive step forward, Obama is certainly living up to his word… What a refreshing and much needed change from that asshole Bush! ;-)

WOW!! This is really amazing! What a breath of fresh air, and a step forward for peace and tolerance. Really awesome news. Thanks so much for sharing. :)

Ahhh Haaa! Yes, there was a Gay Pride parade outside the front of my building in downtown Birmingham last night! It was a real hoot!!! And last night was its 21st year of celebrating. I thought that was so neat here in the Bible belt.

And yes, Mr. Obama, I, for one, am looking forward to a brave new world!

I think I heard a minister say something like this the other day at the end of his sermon… hallefuckinglujah LOL!!
About time hey? :)

YESSSSSSSS – hallefuckingluhjah!!

well done Robert with the Oz site!!!! And yes, what everyone says in positive tones. :o)

Reading this and checking out the sites…..Obama’s statement…...There is a change on the way….hold on it I think is going to see be a bumpy ride but hell what I ride indeed. I found this incredibly exhilarating news…..MY goodness will we actually have a united earth one in the future?? Is this one of the seeds that is being planted in my lifetime? I sure hope so for the next generation…and the next ..

Thanks heaps everyone for commenting. Spread the word. You might find THIS interesting too. The Human Rights Watch annuallly publish a ‘Hall of Shame’ each year to mark the International Day Against Homophobia. It includes countries, parties and leaders who are both making a difference and violating rights. I can’t find the 2009 one but here it is from 2008. Interesting read.

Peace

Great news.

What century are we living in?
Great news darling man x

I was extremely happy to see the issue of SX with so much about This is Oz, and this posting too – thanks. x

wonderful to see and so very heartening – first i have seen of the oz site. I hope that Obama will some day go beyond recognising ‘civil unions’ for full equality, thanks for bringing the news here rob x

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2009 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month. I call upon the people of the United States to turn back discrimination and prejudice everywhere it exists.

YAY! I am so glad to see this! It is definitely a huge step in the direction of equality!

Over the past weeks I’ve linked to This Is Oz wherever possible. Keep up the great work

Brilliant! thank you so much for helping with promotion!

Its about time the world wakes up, better late than never.

Fantastic news!
