If you really want to do something to help in this fight, join and contribute to NOM. They are waging the grassroots campaign and taking the most flak from the gaystapo.

Does he really think this 5% of the vote really matters that much!? Because frankly I think he’s wasting our time with his constant lack of focus on the given.

Obama is looking for trouble and he will find it soon if he doesn’t stop acting like he is a king and not a president.

Is it just me or does it bother anyone that Barry Obozo and his administration are operating totally outside our Constitution? The end justifies the means? Where’s the “Rule of Law”?

With the current makeup of Congress, Obummer will be voted out before being removed by impeachment.

Obama can suck ass. The house has his nuts in a vise. He can scream all he wants. Just watch these states kill communism under his watch. The community organizer is going down.

Obama’s using this as a diversion, and if this article is any example, it’s working.

Homosexuals are a tiny minority and this issue can be dealt with better later and more directly. Right now we’re allowing ourselves to be distracted from what is more important, namely the economy.

Conservatives are so stupid!!
