In an interview with the BBC on Thursday, Obama said he has delivered a "blunt" message on gay rights to African leaders in the past and the topic will be "front and center" when he visits Kenya and Ethiopia.

In Obama's world view, gays > 3rd world cultures. Isn't this Cultural Imperialism?

Never tell a malignant narcissist what they can and cannot do.

Just as only whites can be racist, only conservatives can be cultural imperialists. (/sarc)

Yeah, because homo rights is a bigger priority for Africans than AIDs, military juntas, Islamofascists, disease, and starvation.

Personally, I don’t think it’s very smart to go to Africa to push the spread of AIDS.

Terrible. We couldn’t have a worse president and the dumpkopf SCOTUS shoved this same sex marriage on us. Outwardly, immoral, Obama is a political hack, support gay marriage, check, support abortion and selling body parts, check. Morally depraved as is the platform of the DNC.

It's not just words.

He leads by actions, as he showed this month by making the USA Ali Khamenei's catamite.

Amazing how homos put their twisted behavior above everything else. Children could be starving in the streets but they’re too consumed by sex to see it. To them, their agenda is all that matters.
