Calvin as I have said here to Romantico before about this issue, Obama spoke out for gays when he was running for his senate seat.
He didn't need to say anything, but risked that. The bottom line is this, both he and Clinton have the same exact stance on gay issues. Marching in parades and actually being for gay marriage are two different things.
Unfortunately both are not for unequivocal equality for homosexuals right now. It sucks but that is the truth.
Oh luscious, you are just to much.
If I didn't find your rants so amusing I'd probably suggest you seek professional help.
Btw, why do you think I'm filthy? Why do you think I hate Obama?
Why do you assume where I stand on any position as I have never publically stated my beliefs?
Why do you draw erroneous conclusions and call others liars when the biggest liar here is quite obviously you.
You. Are. A. Freak.
Its the homophobic company he keeps that is an issue with me. He does not denounce them. There are other things that disappoint me as well. Read the article.
Again, this is not reason enough for me to not vote for him, but I do find it disturbing.
Romantic, and you are not paying attention to me either. I have posted links on here several times that have Obama stating he was unaware of this and it had nothing to do with his stance.
The news you have is old. It does not make in invalid but it does not make him a homophobe.
"Its the homophobic company he keeps that is an issue with me. He does not denounce them. There are other things that disappoint me as well. Read the article. "
I don't understand. We all know homophobic people, we work with them we see them on TV, we go to their churches.
Why does every politician have to "denounce" everything? Like that makes it better. I think he did "denounce" this guy but clearly Obama is not homophobic. If you want to take issue with someone, take issue with the ex-gay guy and ask him why he would perform with someone who is pro-gay?
"Btw, why do you think I'm filthy? Why do you think I hate Obama?" "Why do you assume where I stand on any position as I have never publically stated my beliefs?"
I think I stated it fairly clearly in my previous posts, but in case you missed it...

"I loathe Obama, and still won't support him."
In my dictionary the words "loathe" and "hate" are synonymous. And the last time I checked, this was a "public" message board.
And for the record, I think all liars and manipulators of the truth are filthy. Don't take it so personally. I can assure you it has nothing to do with your ethnic or religious background, if that's what you're hinting at. And if you knew what my ethnic and religious background was, that would be crystal clear.
Don't know and don't care.
But you go on and and have fun making an ass out of yourself.
I'm not wasting anymore of my time on you.

I think "You're a filthy Obama-hating liar" would be a great thing to say during some rough sex.
See, romantico, my position is that if the Donnie What's-His-Names and such of the world are willing to support Obama knowing his position on gay rights issues, it's their compromise -- not his.
Let's break this down, shall we?
FILTHY OBAMA-HATING LIAR.
FILTHY:
I addressed the FILTHY part in my previous post. (See above)
LIAR:
The LIAR part is obvious. You took something I said, quoted me out of context, and twisted it to suit your weak political argument. You were even called out on it by at least one other poster. Not to mention that you never answered the questions that I posed on three separate occasions. That's because you can't without sounding even less informed than you already do.
OBAMA-HATING:
But can you, or anyone else, tell me why it's okay to call someone a Hillary-hater, but Obama-hater is off limits?
As for your not wasting any more of your time on me, that's just fine with me; because frankly, you're wasting mine. But then why further validate my thoughts and opinions by quoting me in your signature? BTW, I'm flattered.

As my Grandma used to say, "Be careful when you point your finger at someone else--you still have 3 fingers pointing back at you--and one at God."

Better to point a gun at someone you disagree with.
That's what I'm saying namey! Violence is always the best and most effective choice!
As my Grandma used to say, "Be careful when you point your finger at someone else--you still have 3 fingers pointing back at you--and one at God."
She sounds like a wise woman. You should take her advice.

Well your grandma sounds like a dirty Obama-hating liar!
"Well your grandma sounds like a dirty Obama-hating liar! "
How does one sound dirty?
I've been known to talk dirty.
My grandma, God rest her soul, used to say...well, things that indicated that she wouldn't have voted for Obama.

Haha!
Calvin, I know what you mean.
My grandmother, whom I loved dearly, would never have voted for either Obama or Clinton.

Grandma, watching an Obama speech
Of course, my grandfather thought Kennedy's first move as president would be to turn over power of the U.S. government to the pope!
