Obama salutes transgender ‘dads’ in Father’s Day proclamation
LifeSite News ^ | June 20, 2016 | Ben Johnson

Barack Obama used his annual Father's Day proclamation to praise transgender “dads,” saying that all “men,” regardless of “gender identity,” play an important role in teaching children “the values that matter most.”

“Dads play vital roles in our lives,” the annual proclamation, released last Friday, began.

“From single fathers who struggle to make ends meet to surrogates who step up to be there for America's daughters and sons, these men help shoulder the greatest obligation that exists – raising the next generation,” Obama wrote. “Regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status; whether biological, foster, or adoptive; fathers teach their children the values that matter most and steer their moral compasses.”

It is the second year in a row that the president has made reference to biological females in his yearly Father's Day message. In 2015 he wrote of the important lessons that “fathers – whether married or single; gay, straight, or transgender; biological, adoptive, or foster – can teach their kids.”

Highlighting homosexual homes is a longstanding Obama practice, dating to his second annual Father's Day proclamation in 2010. “Nurturing families come in many forms, and children may be raised by a father and mother, a single father, two fathers, a step father, a grandfather, or caring guardian,” Obama wrote.

President Obama has long been critiqued for using presidential holiday proclamations to send political messages - refusing, for example, to write an annual Easter Day message but choosing to commemorate Muslim holidays like Ramadan.

Did any of you Freepers really think that the narcissistic disgrace would not use the occasion of a national holiday honoring fathers to pay homage to himself?

Clown Prince nobama has some sort of psychological fixation on trannys. Could this have to do with being “reared” by his tranny au pair when young? Enquiring minds want to know!

Obama you are one very sick mofo. Your dark naked shriveled little soul is visible for everyone and cannot be hidden even behind the presidency of the United Sates.

“Regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status; whether biological, foster, or adoptive; fathers teach their children the values that matter most and steer their moral compasses.”

Except for the thousands and thousands of "fathers" who impregnate women and then disappear. Think: Chicago, Detroit, Philly, DC, Los Angeles, Frisco, et al. What ever happened to holding those men accountable? I remember when this country used to garnish their wages for child support. More than ever, us tax payers pick up the bill, and those inner city children get NO "moral compass" because of those dead beat fathers.

I would like to see just ONE journalist ask Obama what to do about the above. Is there really any wonder why America has such a huge prison population?

In the midst of all that is happening, THIS is what floats to the top in the head of Barack Hussein Obama!?!?

This sort of crap is what forever cements him into the “community organizer” realm.

The protection of Muslims, and special interest groups is his obsession.

The glory and grandeur of the presidency, the White House, or the history of America means nothing to him. Oh, he celebrates the notireity, the bully pulpit, and, don’t forget all of the taxpayer funded freebies, but nothing gets his official attention like a thug getting shot by a cop, or blaspheming Islam. Then, he streaks to the nearest TelePrompTer to lecture the American people on the wonders of muslimville.

If he could only get our guns, he could make us do what he wants.

Finish up you semester Barry, and get the hell out of Dodge.
