Never met a liberal against gay marriage and very few that are pro life.....I think I will start a poll.....
As I theorized before, this was setup with ABC for him to come out and say this. I am disappointed he is using this to distract people from real issues such as our economy, jobs, infrastructure, the budget, etc.

When did human rights become something less than a "real issue"?
See, I see this as the one sure thing that anyone in our government could do to improve our economy, even just a little bit. Same sex marriage being legal has proven to be a financial positive, at least a little bit, to everywhere it has happened in the US. Plus, it is highly likely that anti-ssm policies cost our government tons of money due to litigation.
It isn't like the President cannot do multiple things in a day or a week or until Nov. If he concentrates on pretty much nothing but this issue, then I would say he is definitely distracting people. But this is just one day during a time when people were already focused on this issue anyway from the vote in NC.
Oh there's plenty of time to talk about the economy, it's not going anywhere. But maybe you're right and he did plan to talk to ABC ....yesterday. At least he clarified his position instead of letting the GOP define it for him.As I theorized before, this was setup with ABC for him to come out and say this.

It isn't a real issue because it isn't that complicated. People just make it complicated, therefore lets distract people from actual complicated issues that we could try and explain with something that is as easy as waiting for a democratic majority and voting on.
Fair enough wasn't even thinking about the NC thing but when I get 3 damn emails about this one damn comment from Obama, Biden, DNC, etc newsletters then it tells me it is a simply ploy for money like cp said, or a way to charge the base and get people like Your Star clapping.

Spoken like a true pundit. lolHe "clarified" his position?
Didn't he already clarify his position in 2008 when he told MTV he believes marriage is "between a man and a woman" and that he is "not in favor of gay marriage."
Earlier this week David Axlerod said Obama's position was on Gay marriage was "evolving".
Isn't it about time America elected an adult to be president?

Sure it's okay but I think you are right, Romney's opinion devolved and Obama's evolved. Thats funny on so many levels. lolAnyway, I'm guessing Romney...devolved...since he once felt discrimination against LGB&T's had to stop and now he's clearly taken another position and, I gather by your very own words, highlighting the fact Obama has taken two positions and suggesting he's a child for doing so, that this "adult" we should elect is NOT Mitt Romney?
Or is it okay to switch positions when it suits your beliefs?
Thank you Hussein Obama..........With that statement you just lost the election..........You did it to get votes but the problem is you already have the gay vote and you will lose millions of religeous Hispanic, Blacks and Catholics vote..
What a scumbag this guy is............He runs for president saying he does not support Gay Marriage and then when he is elected he does a flip flop and supports it............

Fear not my birther friend. His opinion doesn't count since he's not an American citizen :2razz:

What an idiotic statement. Some people are looking for any reason to hate Obama. Why don't they just come out and say "I don't like black people".
Not saying this applies to the post above, but when people make these baseless remarks you have to speculate on what motivates such overzealous hatred of our President.
They are idiotic why? Because they are all factually correct
Please quit lying to the world and change your 'lean' to be what it really is.
Oops, stop right there. You were speculating.
Buy a dictionary and look up the word 'moderate'.
The lines from the other poster: "Didn't he already clarify his position in 2008 when he told MTV he believes marriage is "between a man and a woman" and that he is "not in favor of gay marriage."

I know what the definition is, which after watching you post for a while, is why I said you are lying when you claim that is what you are.
But the way you interpreted them... or should I say misinterpreted them was you SPECULATING or mis-speculating.
You were guess on what it all meant.
Apparently you don't have a clue about what moderate means. Why would a moderate NOT support President Obama, given the other choice of the GOP moving away from center?
BTW - how many posts of mine have you read. Stick around, you may learn something.
Yep, when I get into my car and wish to move forward, to go someplace, I choose "D". When I want to go backwards, I choose "R". Funny. that is the same thinking I have in the voting booth.
Did Obama really do the right thing? One has to remember that the whole "gay" vs. "straight" idea is being discredited and queer theory is emerging as the new way to think about sexuality.
IMHO, these labels--"gay" and "straight", which are supposed to be only temporary, are doing more damage than good. When people lock themselves into labels that don't do justice to their true nature, they'll just end up limiting themselves.
