Obama Says Troops Are Fighting ‘On My Behalf’

Barack Obama speech 11 SC 300x199 Obama says troops are fighting ‘On My Behalf’

The debate over same sex “marriage” has engaged the heartfelt feelings and convictions of millions of Americans. Then there is Barack Obama.

The same advisers told the Post that Obama would make the decision based on his gut, but that is an insulting way to refer to the vice president. There is no evidence that Obama planned to speak until Joe Biden said last weekend that he was for gay “marriage” and forced the issue.

In fact, Obama has not “evolved”—he has changed his position whenever his political fortunes required him to do so. Running for the Illinois state senate from a trendy area of Chicago in 1996, he was for gay marriage. “I favor legalizing same-sex marriages,” he wrote in answer to a questionnaire back then. In 2004, he was running for the U.S. Senate and needed to appeal to voters statewide. So he evolved, and favored civil unions but opposed homosexual “marriage.” In 2008, running for president, he said, “I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage.” Now in 2012, facing a tough reelection campaign where he needs energized supporters of gay “marriage” and has disappointed them with his refusal to give them his support, he is for it. To paraphrase John Kerry, he was for it before he was against it before he was for it again.

Mr. Obama’s statement today is a marvel:

“I have to tell you that over the course of several years as I talked to friends and family and neighbors, when I think about members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together; when I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage, at a certain point I’ve just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same sex couples should be able to get married.”

    He is the most ARROGANT SON OF A !!!!!!!……that anyone could have imagined, unless they paid attention to him, his nose in the air, and the “ALMIGHTY HAND” when someone said something that displeased him. He gave “The Hand” to Diane Sawyer on one interview, and she backed off like a “good little comrade”. Katie Couric is as arrogant as he is, and her whole being supported him in 2008. She is as rude to anyone as he is, and she “serves him implicitly, no questions asked”! He wants everyone to do the same, and this “gay marriage” thing is for political reasons, that is the ONLY reason he “evolved”! He is now desperate, and will promise the world with a bow tie, just to get the votes……….but! After he wins, if he should, he will not keep one promise to anyone! The things he promised to the American people are the One and Only example we need! Everything he has done is the opposite of what he “promised”, and he will do it again, given the chance! Hollywood is sick, the whole place should just be swallowed up by a giant earthquake. I wish, oh, how I wish one would level them, and bring them all down to the same level of our lives. And start with Cloony’s house! These people have no clue as to what life has became for we, “little people”, their only concern is that we spend money, and making them rich, so that they can throw parties for the man who has ruined the country for the rest of us. They do not care, except that they NEED us. We should boycott their films, movies, and shows! After all, without the citizens of this nation, they would not make the MILLIONS they do, to help this mu SLIME be re-elected. Oprah supported him last time, and I have never watched anything she is in, produced, or had so much of a hair being involved in television. I despise her too, and hold her at least 95% for getting this shithead elected. Sorry, but the word “shithead” is really the only word I can think of to describe him at this point. He just simply makes me sick to my stomach! To look at him for more than 30 seconds is 30 seconds too long! Another 4 years of this traitor, disease, infection, mu SLIME is almost too much to contemplate! If he is re-elected, oh crap, I can’t think of anything more sickening, more revoltin, than the thought of that happening! Something HAS GOT TO BE DONE AND DONE SOON! America needs her people back as they have always been. Look around you as you go here and there, and really see our country as a FREE LAND! Look at the beauty of it, and try to think of how this beauty will be ruined for you and for me. Because he will take the pleasure of being an American if he slimes his way back……..we will not be able to see the beauty of America, because there will be so much anger in our nation, and it will ruin our lives. We will see no beauty in anything if we don’t put a stop to this DICK TATOR who thinks the world revolves around him and the military is his personal army, to protect him, and help him destroy America. “fighting on my behalf” if that isn’t the heighth of arrogance, the end to end all endings……he truly beleives he is KING OF THE WORLD! When in reality, he is the BOIL ON THE ASS OF AMERICA! And HE NEEDS TO BE LANCED! He is EVIL INCARNATE! A MU SLIME!
