THE BIG STORY, BY MATT TAYLOR
In this Citizens United era of unregulated campaign cash, gay activists and donors are finding innovative ways to reward Barack Obama, who despite his equivocation on marriage equality is often lauded as the greatest friend to the LGBT community of any president in American history.

"This kind of Republican campaign has mobilized the community like I haven't seen since 1992," said David Mixner, a veteran progressive strategist Newsweek once called the most powerful gay man in America. "There's a lot at stake. I have no doubt people will be involved in some way in Super PACs. You can count on the major donors of this community dong whatever they have to do to assist in the re-election of this president."

Meanwhile, the financial speculators and supply manipulators who are artificially causing our gasoline prices to rise escape scrutiny, while self-serving politicians (tanked up on Big Oil's and Wall Street's campaign cash) divert attention to the bugaboo of Obama's pipeline decision.

SOCIAL SECURITY AND YOU
Social Security and Supplemental Security Income are two very different programs. Their only similarities are their names and the fact that they're both managed by the Social Security Administration. Many people who are getting Social Security disability benefits think (and constantly tell me) that they're getting SSI. Here's an example of how that can lead to all kinds of confusion. READ MORE
