Obama waves his hand and wants 2000 year old traditions changed.

Obummer is losing so much support he is looking for anything for any groups that can get his poll numbers higher. But he is mistaken because gays are mostly liberal anyway and he is making no headway in getting moderate and conservarive and independent folks on board which is where his steeply declining poll numbers indicate. Obummer is merely shoring up his base to keep from sliding further into the abyss.

This should be spread far and wide in the black community, which for the most part opposes gay marriage and heard the O-bot's promise to respect traditional matrimony.

One day he will stand before God Almighty and have to answer for these things. He cannot alter or change the way the real Law says. He is not the messiah I know.

“Typical politician. Says one thing, does another.”

This is unfair to typical politicians the world over. Obama is in a class by himself. You are so flagged.

Well, then I guess he’ll just have to come out of the closet. Michelle will be just fine with it—she’s one of those tolerant, diversity-loving folks, now, isn’t she? And the rest of the country will shrug and say, “whatever turns you on.” And the gays will go crazy with O-love!

The black community opposes gay marriage for the most part until Obama say’s he’s for it. Then the black community will fight tooth and nail for gay marriage and call anyone a racist that opposes it.

That is the truth of what we’re looking at here.

Even the real Messiah stated that He did not change one word of the Law.

What about polygamy?
Will it be up next on Obama’s agenda?

Humans are Mammals.

Mammals reproduce via HETEROsexual procreation....and so do penguins.

Yep - ignore what he says - watch what he does. He is a master at deception. Which is why he sits in the Oval office today.
