Question of the Day

In honor of Tyren Scott: If you had the opportunity to ask President Obama one question, what would it be?

I would ask him why the hell he wasn't pushing for federal marriage equality, like, yesterday. And when he started giving me some bullshit political response that made my cheeks burn in fury, I would say, "Just kidding. My real question is: May I speak to Secretary Clinton?"

(Which, btw, is not a reflection on him personally. It's a reflection on the nature of the particular office he holds. I don't believe anyone would give me a straight answer from that chair, including Clinton, if she were there. In that hypothetical, I'd probably ask for Helen Thomas or something, lol.)
