The issue of a communication gap between the LGBT community and the White House was raised at the LGBT White House briefing two weeks ago with Melody Barnes, Assistant to the President and Director of the White House Domestic Policy Council.

The answers given by Ms. Barnes to questions about the White House LGBT communication gap seemed to confirm, rather than alleviate, the concerns expressed by the attendees.

There was a sense of denial. The White House is trying hard to communicate, so therefore, they must be communicating, despite what these pestilential media types across the table were insinuating.
