President Barack Obama’s top health adviser on Monday called for an end to partisan bickering over Obamacare, saying the public and businesses are sending a clear message to Washington that it is time to move on with implementing the law.

There is a correlation here which explains why the left is also pushing the gay agenda.

From their POV sodomy is perfectly natural and should be accepted by everyone.

Why should Obama care be viewed any differently?

Then why does Obama keep delaying implementation of the law until after elections?
