Yawn. What part of we are sick and tired of hearing about that crap you do not understand? We have other problems to worry about such as an economy in the pits, bombs that might fall in Africa, and lynch mobs that might murder blacks in North Africa and the leaders of the various African countries. Now where in all that can we find time to worry about "gay marriage"? We simply ain't interested. And if Obama wants to get re-elected he MUST respond to our concwerns. And the reason he has no real choice in the matter is because he such a miserable little house slave to begin with. He will be running aginst Romney who has already proven himself to be a great man. Obama is a midget compared to Romney who is a giant. This is why he found time to cater to "gay marriage". Romeny is like any normal person: he does not give a dam about "gay marriage"
In that one interview, Obama spent about 2 minutes on marriage equality, and much more on the economy, as well as other issues. He can multi-task, while some want to vote based on only the one issue of equal rights. Romney has made a point of stating his opposition to marriage equality in many speeches, and wants to change the document held out to the world as a promise of freedom, justice, and equality, to one that enshrines prejudice and discrimination. Clearly, Romney does give a darn about "gay marriage". He wants to devote his time as well as that of both houses, and every voter in the nation, in order to prevent marriage equality for gay people. It seems he cares about it much more than does Obama.

And yes, we have other important problems that affect all Americans. Yet for the gay minority, equal rights includes more than just marriage. Public accommodations, housing, employment protections remain on the list. So the quick and easy way to solve this problem is to simply grant equal rights to everyone, as required by the constitution, so we can all focus on the other problems affecting us all.

Because you are not directly affected by anti-gay laws and social policies that stigmatize and dehumanize you through denial of equal treatment, it appears you do not appreciate the variety and severity of harm caused by those laws and scientifically unsupportable beliefs. But they continue to be used here and around the world by individuals and governments to justify bullying, beating, torturing, and killing gay people. You may wish to deny it, but those who demonize and punish us, are killing us.

Decades of history and science, in addition to trial records of many different courts have all clearly demonstrated: Prejudice and discrimination causes suffering and death.

This is Trolling 101: You blindly and very, very deliberately ignore a post explaining *in detail* why you are stuffed to the gills full of shit, and you pretend -- literally, as if you think *your words govern me and my thought process*-- as if you have some "control" over me -- you pretend you have somehow emerged "victorious."
The reason most trolls are stupid, "doctor," is that your post *proves I was right*. Think about it. Think carefully before you post again, and give me more ammunition.
Try to be a little bit less of a puppet on a string, for christ's sake.
Seriously. Think.
The only thing you have proven is that you lack critical thinking abilities and basic reading comprehension skills. I blame the government schools and teachers unions.

Fact: "As of May 2012, with the passing of North Carolina's gay marriage ban, 12 states prohibit same-sex marriage via statute and 30 via the state's constitution."

30 + 12 = 42

42 is 84% of 50.

Of course I did not see the interview. But, I will bet you dolars against donuts that he did not indicate that he gave a dang about our concernes about lynchings in North Africa, bombs falling in Afirca or his caviliar attitude towards human life as in stem cell research abuse, abortions, the rights of Believers to practice their faith as in Catholic opposition to abortions, lychings and dearh panels in Obamaacre and growing the economy at a decent rate to keep us all from or especially the black community from going under in this Great Recession. So why listen to guy whom we all know after 2 1/2 ain't going to saying anything releceant to our concerns and our daily lives?
Not Yet Equal wrote:

Yeah. The Queer community votes on on "gay rights issues". That is why this country has been so screwed up since KKKlinton. As long as KKKlinton supports "gay rights" they do not care how many blacks get lynched in Libya.

Romney is smart. Give "gay rights" to Obama. He does not need it. So why lose votes by supporting it? That is thre kind of man we need to fix the mess that KKKlinton and Obama have created.

Again, Romney is smart. I like that in him. It proves that he has a brain in his head and guts in his belly. Obama has a small brain and no guts at all. That is why he goes about lynching bin Laden, Al-Awlaki, and Qadddaif and is dumb enough to think black people will support his stupid lynchings. I mean, give me an ever loving break!!! The idiot actually brags about lynching bin Laden and think black people feel confortable with that. That is plumb dumb. Only a hose slave fool would throw that into the face of the Balack Communty every other day. He should be trying to hide the fact so we can forget about and stop having nightmares every night.

We build bombs in Saint Louis. We have one of the biggest defense contractors in the world here. And this is one reason the Dummycrats lost the Missouri vote: KKKlinton caused McDonnell Douglas to almost go out of business. Many people lost their jobs, inclusing me.

96% of blacks voters voted for him last time and 96% are gonna vote for obama this time.

Black people support gay marriage:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/05/24/mary...

The poll notes that the shift can be explained "almost entirely" by a change in black voters' attitudes. Previously, 56 percent said they would vote against the new law, with 39 percent saying they would vote for uphold it. Now, 55 percent say they will vote for the law and 36 percent are opposed.

This is the problem with some black churches:

They'll have some self-righteous preacher at the pulpit broadcasting to the congregation how the sanctity of marriage should be upheld and respected. In order to do this, people need to recognize the sinful nature of same-sex marriage. Meanwhile Rev. DoRight has been intimate with several women in the congregation offending the vows he promised his own wife. He might even have children from these adulterous relationships. I have an aunt whose first child was conceived by a married Baptist Reverened when she was 16. Yet, they HAVE to make as if they are so concerned about some so-called SANCTITY.

It's ridiculous.

It's kinda stupid of blacks to all of a sudden turn 180 degrees and support gay rights,
... while they're still being denied their own, by profiling police, discriminating employers, and the rest of racist "white" society.
Are ya SURE it's not just blindly following Obama's lead?

If obama decided to reinstitute segregation, or even slavery itself,
... these stupid fks would vote for it.
Hell, they support the guy even though his poolicies have pushed their unemployment to double the national rate.

The one and only thing that DOES surprise me about negroes doing this 180 on gay rights is,
... they haven't found a way to blame Bush this time.

Daily Horoscope for May 23

Aries

You're idealistic and impressionable today, and want to see the best in everyone. Look straight past their faults, pretending they aren't there; concentrate on their good points instead. If a new relationship gets off the ground now it will always be characterized by an aura of romance and fantasy, and a slightly otherworldly quality.
