Obama: “There Will Never Be a Substitute For” Fathers; Obama’s DOJ: Children Don’t Need Fathers

President Barack Obama, who favors legalized same-sex marriage and whose Justice Department is arguing in the Supreme Court that children need neither a father nor a mother, said today in a weekly address celebrating the Father’s Day weekend that “there will never be a substitute for” a father and that he still wishes he had had a father around when he was a child.

Obama also said in the address that he wanted to use his presidency to “encourage marriage” and that he would work with “faith” groups to encourage “fatherhood.” …

Obama then made clear he was directing his talk to parents who were both “gay or straight.” …

Soon, the Supreme Court will issue it decision in the case challenging California’s Proposition 8, which amended the state’s constitution to say that marriage is between one man and one woman. The Obama Justice Department filed a brief in that case expressly telling the Supreme Court that children need neither a mother nor a father because two parents of the same sex are just as good as a mother and father.

Perhaps he'd like to kiss the father of the year.

Obama didn’t need a father and look how far it took him.

He and Billy Goat have something in common. They’re both basta-ds.

He did not have a father so he thinks no one else should either.
