President Obama Asks *You* To Celebrate Homosexual Pride Month

It’s true.

The President has asked all Americans to observe this month, so if you’re an American, this means he is asking you to do so.

In a proclamation posted on the White House web site, he writes:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2010 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month.  I call upon all Americans to observe this month by fighting prejudice and discrimination in their own lives and everywhere it exists.

Earlier in the proclamation he detailed all the things he has done on behalf of these favored citizens:

Across my Administration, openly LGBT employees are serving at every level. . . .

My Administration has advanced our journey by signing into law the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr., Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which strengthens Federal protections against crimes based on gender identity or sexual orientation.  We renewed the Ryan White CARE Act, which provides life saving medical services and support to Americans living with HIV/AIDS, and finally eliminated the HIV entry ban.  I also signed a Presidential Memorandum directing hospitals receiving Medicare and Medicaid funds to give LGBT patients the compassion and security they deserve in their time of need, including the ability to choose someone other than an immediate family member to visit them and make medical decisions.

In other areas, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announced a series of proposals to ensure core housing programs are open to everyone, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.  HUD also announced the first ever national study of discrimination against members of the LGBT community in the rental and sale of housing.  Additionally, the Department of Health and Human Services has created a National Resource Center for LGBT Elders.

And he talks about all the things he’d like to do in the future:

Much work remains to fulfill our Nation’s promise of equal justice under law for LGBT Americans.  That is why we must give committed gay couples the same rights and responsibilities afforded to any married couple, and repeal the Defense of Marriage Act.  We must protect the rights of LGBT families by securing their adoption rights, ending employment discrimination against LGBT Americans, and ensuring Federal employees receive equal benefits.  We must create safer schools so all our children may learn in a supportive environment.  I am also committed to ending “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” so patriotic LGBT Americans can serve openly in our military, and I am working with the Congress and our military leadership to accomplish that goal.

So there you have it. President Obama taking credit for all he has done to normalize the open practice of sexual deviancy in our society, as well as measures he’d like to take in the future to further normalize it, including “creat[ing] safer schools so all our children may learn in a supportive environment.”

I wonder if he’d like to require private schools to be “safer” in this way?

And I wonder where all this is going and how long it will be until gets there.

Some considerations from the Holy See here, and here, and here.

Still, the President’s request that *you* celebrate Gay Pride this month remains.

What do you think about that?

A few years ago, I read a book by a Christian doctor which explained graphically homosexual sex techniques. Up to that point, I think I was like millions of others who just didn't give homosexuals and their sex activities that much thought so therefore it seemed sanitized and acceptable, 1 on the perversion scale of 1 to 10.

After reading this book, I can not hear the word homosexual with out having graphic images of feces, urine, semen ingested, digested, smeared and slimed by adult naked human beings. These are not good thoughts that I can take Pride in this month so I will have to opt out of the President's month of celebrating eating feces. Sorry, but my life has been ruined just having to realize that these nice “gay” people are sh*t eaters.

Please excuse by grossness but it is time to expose this perversion.

President Obama has not issued a proclamation yet for swingers or swappers.

But what about homosexual swingers or swappers?

[donmeaker]

That is creepy. I don’t want to watch homosexual pride in action. (ewwww!)

[geege]

Wonder if Zero is going to do some fudge packing this month himself to celebrate this great occasion.....

I call upon all Americans to observe this month...

That's OK Barry, I'll have to decline. I find the bible to be quite clear on the Almighty's view of homosexuality and I don't feel like tempting fate by going against it. Contrary to what you and your followers believe Barry, there are proclamations that carry far more force than anything you can write.

Wonder what his fellow Muslims would think about this?

Correcting my statement: Both urls in post no. 14 and 25 are working links.

Reggie, Reggie Love get your ass in here right now; biach

Pretty soon we not only will have to watch out for soiled pampers in the parking lot, we will have to watch out for brown stained tissues soaked with KY jelly too.

Ah! The new American lifestyle is wonderful isn’t it?

Is July going to be “Monogamous Heterosexual Pride Month”?

[didn’t think so...too “close minded”]

[crescen7]

Can’t the same folks who demand separation of church and state find it reasonable that we should also have separation of sexual orientation and state.

[mikey_hates_everything]

Can July be nose-pickers’ and booger eaters’ month? Or toe nail chewers’ month? How are they any different? Hillary told us at work that May was queer month, now it’s June? Forgot about those Asian-Pacific Americans, huh?

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Only thing is: you gotta walk all around to kiss her afterwards.

Her? Remember, next month is Homobestiality Pride Month.

[Rappini]

The Veterans get one day and these Fags get a month.

[gathersnomoss]

What 0bama wants, 0bama gets. How special.

[Ayn And Milton]

LOL! Remark of the day IMHO...

[Drawsing]

That's like saying you are “proud” of picking your nose in public.

It is more like saying you are proud of picking your nose until it bleeds and falls off. Homosexuality is a self destructive lifestyle.

[seemoAR]

So, does this mean Zero is coming out of the closet this month? ;0)

[Brouhaha]

And with that Jimmy Carter can now breathe a sigh of relief. He is no longer the worst president in US history.
