A black friend gave me the heads up that this was coming.

Give this Paster credit for having and holding to his principles under pressure.

[sickoflibs]

Who else would think to look for this but me? ping!

IMO the more it appears that Obama is losing votes because of this or any reason.. the more the race card will be used to try to get those voters back.

This is not an “inadvertent attack” on the Christian faith. It is a DELIBERATE attack on it.

As for his “beloved” president.......Are we to assume the pastor agrees with all of the rest of Obama’s socialist/leftist policies then?

[Tamar1973]

His endorsement is an inadvertent attack on the Christian Faith.

I don't think it's inadvertent at all. Obama's attacks on Christianity and his "change of heart" on gay marriage are deliberate and calculated.

[Dilbert San Diego]

I give this Pastor credit for standing up for his principles and values.

It takes courage nowadays to stand up and say that you believe marriage should be a man and a woman.

It takes NO courage or reasoning ability to say that you support homosexual marriage.

There is no price to be paid for supporting homosexual marriage in our current social/political climate.

But there is a potential severe price to be paid if you support traditional marriage and oppose homosexual marriage.

Pastors will be under increasing pressure in the years ahead. Among other issues, churches may be sued for “discrimination” for not performing homosexual marriages.

Churches could lose tax exempt status, or lose the legal ability to perform legally binding marriages, if they don’t go along with homosexual marriage. That has yet to be determined in court or legislatively, but, it’s a clear threat.

And we’re going through all of this to make 2% of the population, Lambda Legal, and Rachel Maddow happy.......................

[Graybeard58]

will Black people still support Obama in droves, despite the Black church’s displeasure with his gay marriage stance?

Do a bear go poo poo in the woods?

[Thrownatbirth]

I'm sure many Southern Baptist ministers, both black and white, are sharpening their oratorical knives for tomorrow's sermons.

Obama just wrote off every state south of the Potomac.

So far, Rev. Al Sharpton has been the only visible religious leader to defend the president’s decision to publicly address this hot-button issue.

lol. like sharpton is a religious leader...yeah, the first church of race baiting.

"The moral impact of this day and decision is equal to the military impact of AL-Queda when they attacked the Twin Towers"

[Beowulf9]

Now this is a man to be proud of. A good Christian who is not afraid to stand up for his faith.

[Libloather]

...the Black Church strongly opposes same-sex marriage.

[classified]

I find that Obama’s opinion that gay marraige should be legalized will do him in and lose his second term the way Old Man Bush’s stand on Read My Lips, No New Taxes! Even though Bush was rather liked, he wasn’t re-elected because his republican followers felt he was not standing on the same principals that they elected him for and should be taught a lesson!

[dps.inspect]

There is no black church... there is only “the church”. Soon as Christians recognize only one God, in three persons, not the demigod of “social justice” then we be talkin... ahhh, they’ll vote for him anyway, just cuz he’s a cuz...

Color me skeptical-—if blacks do show up at the ballot box they aint voting for the Willard One—gay marriage aside.

[Gay State Conservative]

A very courageous clergyman.He's obviously opened himself up to cries of “Uncle Tom” from the usual suspects (choreographed,of course,from the Oval Office itself).

[Freddd]

Why is it millions of Americans could see this coming. But not this pastor?

President Obama’s Bagram Air Field Address.
May 1, 2012

My fellow Americans, we’ve traveled through dark cloud of discrimination in our military for too long.

Here, in the pre-dawn darkness of Afghanistan — where we meet to help produce an ad for my reelection — we see the light of new day of tolerance about to break on the horizon for our military and nation.

I am here today to apologize to the thousands of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered men and women who have served their nation faithfully over these many years, but were forced to live a lie.

I am here to offer the hope of change!

For decades gay soldiers were forced to deny who they are, suffering under the flawed policies of the past that forbid same-sex loving in the ranks. No More!

This year my administration fought hard to put those antiquated restrictions aside. Now, thanks to our hard work, gay soldiers may choose to love openly in our armed forces.

When I was elected, I set the goal to defeat right wing bigots where ever we find them. Soon, we succeeded in eliminating the hypocritical ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ scourge upon our land.

Now for the first time, gay soldiers may date, marry, kiss before battle, play with soap and openly greet their partners with passion upon returning home.

Over the last three and a half years, my administration has been in direct discussion with gay rights groups to move forward on this glorious cause.

With this new policy the American people, and the world, should know that gay people have a friend and a partner in the United States military.

Our momentous actions mean that full Gay Rights is now within our reach! May that day break into a noon day sun upon our land.

Thank you and may something truly bigger-than-our-selves, such as God, Allah or Gia, bless America!

[mosesdapoet]

I wish some of these black GOP candidates would start circulating material in their distrricks directly asking their black constituents this question

What the hell has Obama relly done for you ?
