President Obama Will Not Defend Marriage. Will promote 'Homosexual Equivalency'
Catholic Online ^ | 10/13/09 | Deacon Keith Fournier

Posted on 10/12/2009 4:36:21 PM PDT by tcg

The President stood confident at the podium when he addressed a crowd of nearly ecstatic fans Saturday night. He promised those assembled for the Banquet of the “Human Rights Campaign”, the leading homosexual activist organization in the Nation: “You will see a time in which we as a nation finally recognize relationships between two men or two women as just as real and admirable as relationships between a man and a woman.”

Lest anyone be confused concerning the meaning of his words here is another excerpt: “… I support ensuring that committed gay couples have the same rights and responsibilities afforded to any married couple in this country. I believe strongly in stopping laws designed to take rights away and passing laws that extend equal rights to gay couples. I've required all agencies in the federal government to extend as many federal benefits as possible to LGBT families as the current law allows. And I've called on Congress to repeal the so-called Defense of Marriage Act and to pass the Domestic Partners Benefits and Obligations Act. And we must all stand together against divisive and deceptive efforts to feed people's lingering fears for political and ideological gain.”

...I write as a Catholic Christian to a mostly Catholic readership. Let’s be clear. The Catholic Church will not change its position on the nature of authentic marriage because it cannot. Truth is not up for grabs. However, after Saturday night, the efforts through legislation and the courts to undermine authentic marriage by expanding its definition to enforce a “legal equivalency” for homosexual partnerships have now taken a quantum leap forward. The leading voice for this Cultural Revolution is now President Barack Obama. Anyone who dares to question whether such a legal equivalency serves the common good were called “divisive and deceptive.”

Saturday was the queers night out?

We lost the argument when they changed the wording.

Just like blacks lost their American status when the liberals labeled them half American half African. Ever heard of an African-Canadian? Why not?

Words mean things.

*******“You will see a time in which we as a nation finally recognize relationships between two men or two women as just as real and admirable as relationships between a man and a woman.” ********

Another Obama lie. We may see their marriages legal, we may be forced to keep our mouths shut by hate laws. We may have to accept it by law, but no moral right thinking human being will ever see the practice of homosexuality as admirable.

And here Bawney Fwank was telling the queer march on Washington that it was a waste of time. Now we know WHY it was a waste of time; Bummer had already granted what they wanted, so why protest and get unwanted extra scrutiny?

The Outrageous Order of Judge Vaughn Walker [Maggie Gallagher]

Judge Vaughn Walker, after ordering a trial which neither party requested, is now ordering only one side — the pro-marriage forces, to turn over confidential campaign communications.

This is outrageous. Prop 8 was not passed by the five or six men who form the Protect Marriage Committee. It was passed by the votes of millions of Californians. Confidential campaign communications cannot, by definition, be relevant to their personal motivations in voting for Prop 8.

This is judicial harassment, plain and simple. It means that millions of Californians who expressed opinions to the Prop 8 campaign may now be exposed to the tactics of intimidation that have taken place against donors. It means that campaign strategy may be judicially revealed a few months before 2010, the year gay-marriage advocates have pledged to repeal Prop 8.

This is not an even playing field. It is one-sided in the extreme. The private, confidential intentions of the proposers could not have had any influence on the voters — and so are irrelevant.

How much respect will gay-marriage advocates show to the ordinary civil rights of Americans who disagree with them? So far, the answer is: not much. Not much, that is, short of eschewing open espousals of violence, and pooh-poohing the level of violence that has already taken place.

This man is an abomination. May G-d quickly render him powerless, and remove him from office quickly.

I still believe Obama is homosexual and that’s one of the reasons why he is catering to the homosexual community so much.

Tutored in Marxism by a known pedophile. Wonder if he was tutored in something else too.

Doesn’t matter much to that worm who is bent on disrupting society-as-we-know-it any way he can.

He says whatever he thinks is expected.

Here obama is with Rick Warren at the “forum”.

I believe that is the plan.
