Can you believe they’re mad that Obama isn’t liberal enough?

Even a cluody, rainy day needs a little sunshine to make a rainbow. With obammer, all the different stroke folks are getting is their pole shined.

Yes, let the ‘rainbow people’ stay home Tuesday. That’s the ticket!

The Democrats tricked them into getting married. Wouldn’t you be pissed?!?! Meanwhile the Democrats are busy destroying families in every other demographic.

Democrats lie. They said there were lots of PUMAs remember? There weren’t. They’re trying to lull voters into thinking Brown’s got it in the bag so they stay home.

Don’t believe it. Republicans must never forget their opponent fights very dirty.

And so, all this talk about LOVE and what it comes down to all this same-sex marriage is MONEY:

From the article:

“We had Hope, because, when Candidate Obama was courting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender voters, he said that he would support repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and enact legislation that would ensure that the 1,100+ federal legal rights and benefits currently provided on the basis of marital status are extended to same-sex couples in civil unions and other legally-recognized unions.

But for right now however… Mary Ritchie, a Massachusetts State Police trooper and lesbian, who has been legally married to her partner in that state for five years… is having to sue President Obama to get access to federal benefits that other married couples automatically receive when they get married in Massachusetts, such as tax benefits, pensions and health insurance.”

It was always about getting the taxpayer money. It never had anything to do with love.

Ritchie’s says she and her spouse have paid nearly $15,000 more in taxes than they would have if they had been able to file joint returns…. And she would like it back… as would the other dozen plaintiffs joining her in this suit.

Extension of benefits to spouse was designed in days when husbands supported families — to support mothers and CHILDREN who had lost their breadwinner.

Obama has managed to artfully get himself into a place where he is smack dab in the middle of a vice with one side, his base, and the other, the rest of us.

He's an incredibly lousy politician, isn't he? I continually wonder at how he got so far with such poor political skills. Perhaps it's because he never had to be publicly accountable in other positions like he is in the Presidency.

No doubt the gay community is po’d at 0bama. Still, I don’t doubt Dems will pull every nasty trick in the book.

Firstly, I don’t agree with their “agenda”, ie repealing DOMA and transferring tax money to same sex couples, and secondly, I don’t believe at the end of the day they will stay home or vote for the very heterosexual opponent. SHeesh.
