WASHINGTON (AP) — In a sharp rebuke of his Republican rivals, President Barack Obama said anyone who wants to be commander in chief must support the entire U.S. military, including gay service members. A combative Obama criticized GOP presidential candidates for staying silent when the crowd at a recent debate booed a gay soldier who asked a question of the contenders via videotape. "You want to be commander in chief? You can start by standing up for the men and women who wear the uniform of the United States, even when it's not politically convenient," Obama said during remarks at the annual dinner of the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest gay rights organization. ...

How sad it was only 3-4 people at a Republican gathering that had the courage to boo the pervert’s question. Society has gone so far off the cliff that Herman Cain saying he would have open homosexuals in his cabinet is barely an issue.
Lying as usual. It was one person, not a “crowd.” This is how media narratives get maintained.
Trying to look a hero to the stinky little group of out buttenrammenfudgenpackers in the very-nervous service. Since when was the national defense arm of the government supposed to be a social program for its own sake?
Cain’s saying he would permit that, or would seek it out? This is damn weird.
No, support isn’t good enough; he has to l-o-v-e them.
On another note, I work at the exchange on base, and a woman Marine came in tonight, and in what I can only assume was a move to try and force someone to react, started making out with her girlfriend in front of me while I rang her up. If this weren't the only job I could find around this area, I would have spit at her. However, thanks to Obama's impending benefit cuts (because I know he will somehow get his way on this) we are trying to save as much as we can before my husband retires in three years.
I’m guessing here, but I think ex-pres clit had a round of golf with O’bummer and read him the riot act where O’bummer either doesn’t run for reelection or gets impeached. There is plenty to impeach him for starting with instructing the ATF on how to carry out his orders along with the gray areas about birth, oath of office, extending the Patriot Act with an electronic signature, warring without authorization, transporting the entire Illinois corrupt Acorn core into the current administration, on and on are all minor issue with the Democrats but when it comes to losing both the House and Senate to the Republicans and State governors and legislatures, then this is a problem.
O’bummer is not the real problem, it is Congress, because Congress approves everything from (smirking) and approving/allowing Turbo Timmy, Healthcare, unfunded wars, more debt via bank bailouts, vetting Presidents...everything that goes on needs Congress’s approval, one way or another (by inaction or ignoring or outright approval). Dems are about to see that slip away.
Not that things will get any better with the Republicans in power but Democrats losing their base (money) is unthinkable for them even if they have to jettison their own party’s sitting president to correct the fund raising problems.
Did he add a “tee hee” at the end of his statement?
what!? you mean you didn’t totally respect her , because she was in uniform , no matter what she was doing ?
I think that even given the new ‘laws’ , such conduct IF in uniform would still be illegal . You should have reported her .
What would we expect from a gay president? Sodomites stick together.
This Ass is Courting Gays whem MILLIONS are losing their Jobs and their Lives are Being Destroyed

Answer: Since the progressives decided that one of the best ways to make our country defenseless would be to destroy the warrior culture. They started by adding women.
Oh I would have had she been in uniform. She was buying liquor, so I had to card her, which was why I knew she was a Marine. PDA of any kind is not allowed for anyone, gay or not, while in uniform for Marines.
