Now that former Miss Cali Carrie Prejean can finally fade back into obscurity, where should we transfer all our anger in the gay-marriage debate? How about our friggin' president, who's (predictably) going back on his campaign promises to legalize same-sex unions.

"Obama wants to be like FDR and do this slowly over a period of time," explains our Dee-Cee source thisclose to the prez, specifically speaking of legalized gay marriage. Guess that first baby step is giving same-sex rights to federal employees. But why wait even longer for the real deal when we've been waiting long enough? Don't placate us by saying you're in favor of it and then barely moving an inch.

At least Carrie Prejean was honest (to an annoying fault) about her dislike of gay marriage. The blond beauty queen yakked her resolute opinion on opposite marriage on any damn show that would have her. We have no doubt where she stands. Should we respect someone like that more than, say, our own president, who doesn't decide one way or the other? Should you?
