		<description>Obama is busy taking care of the USA from becoming dust, and you guys whine about him &quot;not caring&quot; for homosexuals...

He has priorities ladies and gentlemen, but he hasnt spoken anything hostile against homosexuals has he? He is out there trying to save the ass of every American that Bush sent to their deaths, so lets wait and see what happens, before anyone start whining about Obama not caring about gays. He just has his hands a bit full right now... And believe it or not, but gay rights have a tendency to be a bit secondary for us non gays in times of war. As insipid as it may sound, tell me, is it true? Or am I lying?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;-Exaggerating your achievements or talents&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Does that include actively covering up a &lt;i&gt;lack&lt;/i&gt; of achievements and/or talents?

&lt;blockquote&gt;of course Obama cares about gays.

You say he&#039;s too busy &quot;fixing&quot; everything, but that didn&#039;t stop him from paying back the unions. He&#039;s doing so much so soon, why not go for the gusto if he really gives a damn.

You say he does, care to offer any examples, beyond his vapid campaign rhetoric?

&lt;blockquote&gt;It’s going to be a LONG, LONG decade for you.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The funny thing is now, you have to include an ass load of democrats when you refer to &quot;you&quot;.


For example.....</description>

I think the Republican party has been very consistent and effective in supporting gun rights/2nd amendment rights.  Letalis, do you have a non-trivial example of Republican betrayal of gun rights?</description>

		<description>of course Obama cares about gays.  To think, however, that he&#039;d take up gay causes in the midst of trying to right our economic ship (caused by that immoral bushco regime), fix the health-care system (caused by greedy health-care companies, BigPharma, megaInsurance and filthy lobbyists), restore our credibility in the world, bring peace to the middle east and solve two wars, is simply ridiculous.  He&#039;s not willing to spend any political capital on it, and who can blame him?  He saw what the vast right-wing conspiracy and repugnant republicans did to Bill Clinton when 42 tried to allow gays in the military.

To think he&#039;ll accomplish everything he promised within his first six months is unrealistic.  Naturally you people are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.  I can&#039;t blame you for that; but go on, keep whining...it&#039;s what you do best.

It&#039;s going to be a LONG, LONG decade for you.</description>

		<description>Pat,

I think President Obama is worse than his predicessors.  Even President Clinton (who &lt;i&gt;shame&lt;/i&gt; was as alien a concept as &lt;i&gt;fidelity&lt;/i&gt; wouldn&#039;t have been so ballsy as to file a brief defending DOMA and then turn right around and lament that he &#039;wants to appeal it&#039;.

That&#039;s what worries me about him the most, he seems to only be concerned about his advancement</description>

		<description>Dan, I actually believe that Obama does care about gay people and gay rights.  However, that and $1 won&#039;t even get you a cup of coffee.  

Obama cares more about political survival and his reelection chances, and perhaps the 2010 elections.  Unfortunately, this is not unique to Obama.  This seemed to be the case for at least two of his immediate predecessors.  For example, Clinton signed DADT and DOMA.  Bush made zero effort to urge Congress to repeal these pieces of legislation and wanted to expand on the latter (people argue that this was also done for political expediency).  And now Obama, despite his promises, has not moved in that direction yet.  He does have a little more than three years to make good on his promises, but I&#039;m not holding my breath.  

&lt;i&gt; Racer - that describes pretty much almost all politicians. &lt;/i&gt;

Bingo, Anthony.</description>

		<description>GPW: You&#039;ve codified something I&#039;ve been thinking: nobody&#039;s who&#039;s actually read Dreams From My Father (and, as per Reagan, understood it) would have voted for Obama.  He&#039;s got more baggage than Paris Hilton walking out of a Macy&#039;s and you never quite know how it&#039;s going to manifest.</description>

		<description>good comments all; however, I think the meme that something is hiding in the closet will get more traction. 

South Park did an episode along these lines ... 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapped_in_the_Closet_(South_Park)

Time for humiliation and sarcasm. This will work at several levels: 
#1 - hiding from LGBT issues (doing nothing ~ hiding in the closet)
#2 - associating with moonbat religious beliefs (Rev Wright ~ Scientology)
#3 - narcissistic personality (Obama ~ Tom Cruise)</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote cite=&quot;&quot;&gt;And while Obama has had many enthusiastic gay supporters (and apologists), one wonders if they supported him not so much for his attitude toward gays, but because of what they projected onto him, due to his charisma, his presence and his left-wing politics.  That combination does work wonders for certain zealous gay partisans.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
You can replace the word Gay in this paragraph with any other grievance group. This is how the Democratic party operates, gather all victims, promise them all the same thing, then screw them over time and time again.</description>

		<description>#25 JP:
A very interesting point WRT to gun owners, although I&#039;m not sure it&#039;s telling.

I suspect it may be a cultural/class sort of thing, such that people on the the RKBA side are much less likely to be members of the political class and most of the political class loathe such people, e.g. Cheney and especially Palin.</description>

		<description>#13 Winks:
This also explains his attraction for Wright&#039;s brand of Marxism called Black Liberation Theology (Marx for the black believers of God). 
Until Wright, he was rather agnostic, if not atheistic, then Michelle turned him on to this vileness and **Bingo** a &quot;religion&quot; that espoused his political leanings. That it also lent a shade of legitimacy to his political aspirations was a bonus.

The short answer is #1 Kevin&#039;s: 
NO
at least until the next elections.

#12 Letalis Maximus, Esq.:
We gun owners are not at the same level as Gays to the Dems though. We at least have a larger number of those on our &quot;side&quot; holding office, who feel the same as we do. I stopped Giving the NRA my monies because THEY are the ones who let political expedience get in they way of common sense. They recommend voting for the incumbent as long as he answered the questionnaire the right way. . .never mind he may well be the First Choice of Nancy Pelosi(indeed many in the Dems wanted Chet Edwards) as Vice President! 

Heh, Now that Joe the Walking Mis-statement has been working his charms, bet you anything, Obama wishes John Edwards hadn&#039;t queered that deal with his affair. . .</description>

Until Wright, he was rather agnostic, if not atheistic, then Michelle turned him on to this vileness and **Bingo** a &#8220;religion&#8221; that espoused his political leanings. That it also lent a shade of legitimacy to his political aspirations was a bonus.</p>
<p>The short answer is #1 Kevin&#8217;s:<br />
NO<br />
at least until the next elections.</p>

We gun owners are not at the same level as Gays to the Dems though. We at least have a larger number of those on our &#8220;side&#8221; holding office, who feel the same as we do. I stopped Giving the NRA my monies because THEY are the ones who let political expedience get in they way of common sense. They recommend voting for the incumbent as long as he answered the questionnaire the right way. . .never mind he may well be the First Choice of Nancy Pelosi(indeed many in the Dems wanted Chet Edwards) as Vice President! </p>
<p>Heh, Now that Joe the Walking Mis-statement has been working his charms, bet you anything, Obama wishes John Edwards hadn&#8217;t queered that deal with his affair. . .</p>

		<description>We hear a lot about the Religious Right, but we often overlook the very large--and thus politically important--Religious Left, made up largely of black and hispanic voters who are hostile to the gay segment of their own party. Obama won&#039;t embrace the relatively small gay vote if it means risking the much larger black and hispanic vote. He&#039;ll probably throw us a bone roundabout year three, when he&#039;s looking to re-election and wants to secure our goodwill. And it will work, because the gay community believes in the depths of its soul that the Democratic party supports all gay issues. They demonize the &quot;red staters&quot; while ignoring the fact that many within their own party--including their president--are hostile to gay marriage, don&#039;t see the gay agenda as constituting a legitimate civil rights movement, and don&#039;t really care whether gays ever get to serve openly in the military. Obama is counting on the fact that the Democrats have always been able to purchase gay loyalty on the cheap, and he&#039;s not so worried about alienating what he knows to be a peripheral minority within the party. Unless he rounds up the gays and puts them in camps, the Hollywood crowd will never turn Republican, and rank-and-file Democrats won&#039;t forget their fear of big-business &quot;Republicons&quot; long enough to raise the voice of protest. Obama is selfish, yes, but he&#039;s incredibly politcally saavy, and he knows that when the gays protest the Dems, they don&#039;t really mean it. No matter what the President does or says, in November, they&#039;ll crawl into the booths and pull the lever for the Left.</description>
