Obama Draws Fire from Both Sides for Speech to Homosexual Activist Group

This weekend, President Obama will leave the White House to attend an awards ceremony and fundraiser held by the Human Rights Campaign, a homosexual activist group. He is the second president to address the gathering.

Obama is slated to speak to members of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Saturday evening at the Washington Convention Center, where the group will hand out the first-ever Edward M. Kennedy National Leadership Award in honor of the late liberal senator’s support for the homosexual political agenda.

“We are honored to share this night with President Obama, who has called upon our nation to embrace LGBT (lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgendered) people as brothers and sisters,” HRC President Joe Solomonese said in a statement.

Obama is only the second president to address homosexual activists. Saturday’s appearance by Obama has sparked criticism from both ends of the same-sex marriage debate.

Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans for Truth about Homosexuality, says by appearing before the group, the president risks losing support from moderate Americans who do not support the homosexual agenda.

“One of the problems with allying yourself with the homosexual movement is they are very demanding and they will continue to push, based on the promises you made,” LaBarbera told CNSNews.com

Most Americans still don’t know anything about the campaign promises Obama made to the homosexual lobby last year, LaBarbera said.

Some homosexual groups say Obama has not lived up to his campaign promises to try to repeal the federal Defense of Marriage Act -- and to end the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy created by President Clinton.

The president's speech will be broadcast live Saturday on C-SPAN and is set to begin at 7 pm EST.

No thanks. Not inmterested in embracing any freaks. There is enough sickness and evil in the rold without a US President giving it face time.

I want everyone to have the same rights. I don’t want to see groups get special rights based on orientations and inclinations and all that. And we shouldn’t have to change the definition of marriage just to make groups like the Human Rights Campaign happy. I think the military commanders, recognizing that the military structure is fundamentally different than civilian society, should make the call about policies which exclude certain people with these inclinations.

God forbid someone expects zero to fulfill a promise. I have some respect for them, actually, for giving Obama crap for not living up to his word. Lots of folks could learn a thing or two.

Oh, brother. What have we become as a Nation?

We have the "President of the United States", with nothing more important to do with his time than to endorse sex deviance, as if it were some sort of accepted practice to moral people?
