Paste your docume(CNSNews.com) - President Barack Obama issued a statement on Saturday indicating that he and First Lady Michelle Obama would commemorate this Sunday as "the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia."

In the statement, the preisdent said he is working to "address the specific needs of transgender persons."

Here is the president's statement :

Michelle and I join our fellow Americans and others around the world in commemorating the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia tomorrow, May 17. We take this opportunity to reaffirm that lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) rights are human rights, to celebrate the dignity of every person, and to underscore that all people deserve to live free from fear, violence, and discrimination, regardless of who they are or whom they love.

We work toward this goal every day. Here at home, we are working to end bias-motivated violence, combat discrimination in the workplace, and address the specific needs of transgender persons. Overseas, I am proud of the steps that the United States has taken to prioritize the protection and promotion of LGBT rights in our diplomacy and global outreach.

There is much more to do, and this fight for equality will not be won in a day. But we will keep working, at home and abroad, and we will keep fighting, for however long it takes until we are all able to live free and equal in dignity and rights.nt here

A slap in the face against Christians, particularly since he chose Sunday for his commemoration.

Using the word “homophobia” is just plain stupid. I think “homonausea” works better.

As with most articles written about what 0bama says, or any new initiative by him, I have to check and make sure I'm not responding to an article from The Onion

The man is not only a catastrophic president, he is a joke. A deadly joke because his sick obsession with irrelevancies puts this nation in danger.

His presidency must be the judgement of God on America. That’s the only plausible explanation.

Who was it that said Obama was no longer relevant or significant?

Next week he will declare as National Bicycle Seat Sniffing Week.

You know that he’s got to look like a total buffoon to the rest of the world.

Yep, the world is laughing at him and he is oblivious to it or just doesn't care, I believe it's the former.

“Of course it will, if you have the stomach click link to view AP pic.”

Thanks for NOT subjecting others to those photos by posting them here at FR. People who want to view that sort of reprobate behavior can make the effort to click on the links to view such on their own.

He is doing everything he can do advance the decadent and immoral behavior. Its as if he is obsess with it and anything else he can do to bring down and destroy any virtue and American values this nation held.

I’ll be having services at the church of John Moses Browning as is my usual habit, but tomorrow I’ll get zombie targets in honor of the day.
