President Obama Proclaims June “Gay Pride Month”
The New American ^ | 6/8/2012 | Dave Bohon

Posted on 06/10/2012 12:29:31 PM PDT by IbJensen

Every year he has been in office President Obama has made it a point to cozy up to America’s tiny homosexual activist minority by officially recognizing June as “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month.” This year, of course, was no exception. Having just come out officially in favor of legalizing same-sex “marriage,” the President followed up on June 1 by issuing this year’s proclamation setting aside the entire month to commemorate the valuable contributions that gays, lesbians, transvestites, and an odds-and-ends assortment of sexually- and gender-confused individuals have made to American society.

“The lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community has written a proud chapter” in American history, declared Obama with this year’s announcement. “From brave men and women who came out and spoke out, to union and faith leaders who rallied for equality, to activists and advocates who challenged unjust laws and marched on Washington, LGBT Americans and allies have achieved what once seemed inconceivable. This month, we reflect on their enduring legacy, celebrate the movement that has made progress possible, and recommit to securing the fullest blessings of freedom for all Americans.”

The President used the proclamation to remind the “gay” community of all he has done for its members, and how much homosexual voters owe him their support come November. “Since I took office, my administration has worked to broaden opportunity, advance equality, and level the playing field for LGBT people and communities,” Obama said. He pointed out that it was he who forced through the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr., Hate Crimes Prevention Act, bullied Congress into ending the common sense “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” ban on homosexuals serving in the military, and is currently doing everything he can to overturn the federal Defense of Marriage Act and legislate the redefinition of same-sex partnerships as “marriage.”

But “more remains to be done to ensure every single American is treated equally, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity,” continued the President. “Moving forward, my administration will continue its work to advance the rights of LGBT Americans,” he promised as he officially recognized June as “LGBT Pride” month and invited the American people to celebrate homosexuality as a normal — even praiseworthy — lifestyle.

On the heels of his proclamation, Obama appeared at a June 6 fundraiser attended by some 600 homosexual activists and “gay rights” supporters, including lesbian talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres and 1970s pop singing star and actress Cher, whose own daughter went through “gender reassignment” and changed her name from Chastity to “Chaz” in an effort to live as a man.

OneNewsNow.com reported that Obama “appeared to feed off the energy” of the crowd as he pledged to block any attempt at the reinstatement of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” ban. Signing the repeal of that ban, Obama said, was a high-water mark for him as President.

On June 5, Stars and Stripes, the government-funded armed forces newspaper, described the results of the lifting of that ban, joyfully reporting that homosexual military personnel openly celebrated their lifestyle at a special “LGBT Pride” reception thrown by the U.S. Ambassador to Japan in Tokyo. “I can’t believe I’ve been in the Air Force 23 years living in secret, hiding who I am, and now I’m invited to a reception by the emissary of the president of the United States,” Stars and Stripes quoted one attendee, Air Force Master Sgt. Marc Maschhoff.

The military newspaper reported that the event “was an exciting and emotional night for Maschhoff and a handful of other U.S. servicemembers. Maschhoff traveled with his boyfriend — who is also an airman — from Misawa Air Base in northern Japan to Tokyo for the event. Maschhoff said he was invited by the embassy because of his affiliation with the group Outserve, a Washington, D.C.-based association for gay servicemembers with chapters worldwide.”

Amazingly, President Obama has appealed to his supposed Christian faith to justify his support for normalizing the homosexual lifestyle through the force of his office. OneNewsNow reported that on the same day he made his “LGBT Pride” proclamation, and right after a group of black pastors asked to meet with him over their concerns about his endorsement of same-sex marriage as a civil right, “the president pointed to his wife and told ABC News, ‘When we think about our faith, the thing at root that we think about is not only Christ sacrificing Himself on our behalf, but it’s also the golden rule — treat others the way you’d want to be treated.’”

Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth About Homosexuality pointed out that the President is behaving “as if rights based on perverse and immoral behavior are basic rights…. Of course, those aren’t basic rights. Basic rights are what we all share as Americans. Rights based on perversion, on changeable homosexual sin, are not basic rights.” He added that “for a man like Obama, who professes to be a faithful Christian, to be celebrating an agenda based on using the government to create rights based on changeable homosexual behavior — that’s a travesty.”

Bob Stith, a strategist on gender issues for the Southern Baptist Convention and head of its Task Force on Ministry to Homosexuals, told Baptist Press News that Obama is purposefully casting “all those who have a genuine, biblically based belief that homosexual acts are sin as haters.” But, he added, “it is not prejudicial to say that certain acts which have been viewed as sin for over 3,000 years by all three major religions are still sin.”

Stith added that the “words the president uses in his drive to normalize homosexuality clearly portray any who disagree with him as prejudiced bigots. Those who agree are loving and brave. The danger here is that those who dare to seek to protect the definition of marriage which has stood unchallenged for thousands of years are themselves the victims of prejudice and hate.”

Sadly, Stith said, Obama’s “LGBT Pride” proclamation “shows no interest in preventing this kind of bigotry. Rather it is another example that if something is repeated often enough it will be accepted as truth even if the evidence doesn’t support it.”

Wouldn’t surprise me if 0bama is not the father of his two children, just as he is not the offspring of Barack 0bama Sr. Ann Dunham and Malcolm X made ‘Barack 0bama’. Question is, who fathered Malia and Sasha? Any guesses, anyone?

Makes one wonder if homosexuality is a cause of serial murder syndrome or if they are both triggered by the same traumas in the person’s early life.

Right on almost all counts. Barack Hussein Obama is not half black.
Obama is the first Arab-American President, not the first black President. Barack Hussein Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother's side and 43.75% Arabic and 6.25% African Negro from his father's side. Although Barack Hussein Obama's father was from Kenya, his father's family was mainly Arabs..
Barack Hussein Obama's father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5% Arab (his father's birth certificate states he's Arab, not African Negro).

Indeed, submission condition is to be gay and submissive to the state.

Yesterday I had a cop tell me I had to address me as sir, as if I was his army private. I said, excuse me? NO, I do not have to address you with sir.

Unless you now are gay butt fcked certified, authorities will not allow you your submissive pass.

The mark on the hand might as well be on your anal figures.

re: “Can we swing the pendulum to the right far enough to get a constitutional amendment? Many unanswered questions in this very disturbing issue now. How do we roll back the changes? May God help us.”

I am in agreement with you. We still have many citizens who believe in God and His moral commandments. I think we have many citizens who follow God’s moral law or at least believe in the veracity of His laws even though they may not be evangelical or church going people.

I know it’s been said many times by others that our nation’s true need is for spiritual revival back to God. But, we are so religously pluralistic now - we don’t seem to have a common moral center anymore. At the same time we must not despair for I do believe where it says that what seems impossible with man IS possible with God.

He has been merciful to us many times in our past. I pray along with you for God’s help again in spite of our many national moral sins.

There are some significant exceptions, but unfortunately, many of our political leadership from local, state, to federal (in all three branches) seem to be in the forefront of accepting and promoting not only homosexal perversion, but also anything that destroys the family structure and policies that corrode liberty, freedom, as well as law and order.

What our people do in the next several elections is important, but more than that, there must be a whole-hearted turning spiritually, morally, politically, and socially toward Godly principles else we are going to lose this battle. We are going to lose our nation.

Anyone who has studied history at all knows that what is happening now has all happened before over and over in other long gone civilizations.

But, one significant thing that sets our nation apart from all others is that in our founding, our great Founding Fathers espoused the belief that the source of our liberty, freedom, and equality is God alone - not from a government or even a constitution, because governments and constitutions are man-made and therefore transitory. As long as we as a people hold that belief to be true and respect God and His moral law, I don’t believe that we would ever fall. Deny the truth of that belief that the Founders established our country upon, and we will fall.

I don’t mean to be dramatic. We don’t all know each other here on Free Republic. We don’t even all agree here politically regarding how conservatism should be worked out, but I do know that we all KNOW our country is in serious, serious trouble right to its soul. We all sense it. We all have an urgency that unless things change we may not make it. God alone knows.

We need to seriously pray, seriously live our lives in a way that pleases God, be a witness for Him, and stand up at home, at work, at play, as well as in the voting box.

Once again, I pray along with you gcraig - God help us. Only He can.

No denying Willard Romney is a RINO and has catered to radical homosexuals before, but I think conservatives would hold his feet to the fire. This is impossible with Barry the sodomite lover.

I have never been as disgusted nor ashamed of any president in my life. I'm sure the world is looking at him very closely and probably giddy over his inane positions.

I don't care what people do behind closed doors between consenting adults, but for the now so-called leader of the free world to say ANYTHING about personal sexuality is beyond the pale. I despise this man. He has no since of decorum.

If the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) can exist, then why not the Loving Animals/Mammals Brotherhood (LAMB)? Yeah, I know sick - just extrapolating. Hope Bambi has his teleprompter ready when some organization promotes sex with animals. How fun would that be?
