The Obama Effect: Is the President Changing Public Views on LGBT Marriage?

At last night's State of the Union address, President Barack Obama made early references to a thriving middle class that could "get ahead no matter what you look like or who you love." This followed those historic statements during his second Presidential Inauguration that gay and lesbian people should be treated "like anyone else under the law," ... (more)

Of course he is.

[Otter in the Ozarks]

Not only is President Obama changing public views on same sex marriage, he is raising public consciousness about LGBT equality in general and ... perhaps even more importantly ... serving as a role model for other legislators and public policymakers.

It's called effective leadership, and I applaud President Obama for it.

[David Traversa]

His humane attitude will , naturally , fall afoul of the inhuman ; but .. like that old Anglo-Saxon bit of wisdom says : " That's THEIR problem ! "

I give Obama credit for the victory in Maryland last November, and probably the victory in Minnesota, as well.

[Park]

Good Obama. =)

And one generation from now, if we make it, there will be less Americans because of hiv, substance abuse, war, pollution, liberalism, violence, obesity, foreign land ownership, corporate profiteering, gay pedophilia, murder, anarcy, immigration, ignorance, and a whole chitload of other reasons. And yet through it all regressive libtards will still claim it all to be religions fault.
What a bunch of decadent asses this country has become.

In the meantime, the non-libtards realize that Obama gets the blame rather than the credit.

Might I suggest you do yourself and everyone around you a favor, and simply end your miserable existence. If it's going to get as bad as you predict, you might need to make haste. Make yourself a martyr for all the other "whack-a-doodles" out there! I promise create a rememberence thread!

Because he is an insatiable insensitive drama queen. If he doesn't get his weekly 'facial' in the right manner he goes postal on topix and starts removing posts and threads. I heard he doesn't waste a drop.

Threads created by trolls specifically to attack another poster are deleted because they are against the TOS of this site.

You are agreeing with the very "liberals" you irrationally fear.

Most Americans have some sort of religious belief, and yet you say that Americans are self destructing.

Wouldn't that mean that religious people are leading the pack?

Try a little logic, please, instead of the silly hyperbole.

Oh, like you haven' t created numerous threads on the topic. Maybe if you had a life and actually had sex with a consenting adult,( family members excluded), your obsession with me would subside. Try asking "World's Bigot Liar's" wife, or old daughter. One of the hags might be good for a hummer!
