Biden Says He is ‘Absolutely Comfortable’ with Same-Sex Marriage

(CNN) — As a ballot initiative to ban same sex-marriage comes to a vote in North Carolina this week, Vice President Joe Biden said Sunday he was “absolutely comfortable” with the idea of same-gender marriage.

“I just think that the good news is that as more and more Americans come to understand what this is all about, it is a simple proposition: Who do you love? Who do you love? And will you be loyal to the person who love?” Biden said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

While he did not touch on the North Carolina initiative, his comments were consistent with his message on the controversial issue in general. He added, however, that it’s the president, not him, who sets the administration’s policy.

President Barack Obama, who once opposed same-sex marriage, has taken the official position that his views on the issue are “evolving.” He says at fundraisers that there is much work do be done, leading many supporters in the LGBT community to believe that he would support same-sex marriage in a second term.

He should be; his wife has been in one long enough.

I didn’t know Rimshot was married to a “gay” guy. You learn something new everyday.

Election time pandering. The President doesn’t want it (to appease the public), the VP is for it (to appease the gays).

Prediction:

The voters will give the thumbs down on same-sex “marriage”, just like in EVERY OTHER STATE that has had it on the ballot. And then, liberal state supreme court judges will OVERTURN THE WILL OF THE VOTERS and make it constitutional, just like in Tax-a-chu-setts and CA.

The Koran does NOT support same-sex marriage. It is obvious how male and female genitalia achieve union. How does male/male genitalia or female/female genitalia achieve union? Is it normal and natural? Does it add or detract from the mental and physical health of the participants? Does it add or detract to the mental and physical health of the population?

The life span of homosexuals is significantly and substantially shorter than the life span of the general population. Is is okay for our elected officials to advocate policies that clearly add risk and endanger the people? Or should we continue to pretend that such union is "normal?"

Way to go Joe, you are the first member of the Executive Branch and the history of this nation to endorse gay marriage.

In doing so, Biden has brought disgrace on himself and our great nation.

It is disgusting that a vice president would endorse gay marriage a policy if approved will destroy or civilization.

When the Vice Plagiarist speaks in his own words, his stupidity is consistent.

Liberals have decided that we need to pretend that homosexual unions are normal. That is where we are in our society and culture.

This is Biden, we’re talking about. He probably thinks “same-sex marriage” means “doing it the same way for 40 years”. He’s probably very comfortable in his own same-sex marraige.

Of course he is because he doesn’t know what it means.

I'm not comfortable with a Vice President of the U.S. that is 12 fries short of a Happy Meal, Mr. Biden.

Based on Biden’s statement, one can infer that Biden is theoretically homosexual. Whether he is a practicing homo remains to be revealed by the loose-lipped VP himself.
