Obama's Agenda is So "Gay"

Was the Copenhagen Global Warming Summit Walk-Out a Win for the U.S.?


So, let's break it down. If elected, Obama has promised to sign radical thought-crimes legislation into law, effectively criminalizing respect for biblical morality. These laws would punish those who oppose sexual behaviors that every major world religion, thousands of years of history and uncompromising human biology have coldly rejected.

ENDA and "hate-crimes" legislation will unconstitutionally compel Christians and other people with traditional values to abandon those beliefs and adopt – under penalty of law – the postmodern "anything goes" view of human sexuality. Such "sexual orientation" laws have been the precursor to even more oppressive "hate-speech" laws in Canada, Great Britain and throughout Europe. But as Obama has signaled, these laws will not remain confined to his beloved Europe. There is little doubt that such laws will be similarly enforced here in the U.S under his administration. If you happen to believe that God created human sexuality to be shared between husband and wife within the bonds of marriage, you'd better not say so or you'll suffer very real consequences.

Still, Obama's loyalty to America's sexual anarchists doesn't stop there. He's additionally sworn to turn the U.S. military into a cultural petri dish. Having no military experience of his own, he would nonetheless arrogantly disregard the vast majority of our military leaders and allow open homosexuals and cross-dressers to infiltrate the ranks of the armed forces – during a time of war – thereby disrupting military readiness and unit cohesion. To use the armed forces for such radical social experimentation is both dangerous and gravely irresponsible.

Finally, Obama's promise to require "gay" adoption in all 50 states is particularly troubling. Here, his blind arrogance billows over. Once again he and his homosexual activist cohorts presume to know better than both God and science. As if common sense weren't enough, studies have firmly established that children are best served with both a mother and a father. Although it's not always possible, mom and dad each provide unique qualities vital in healthy child development. To selfishly place untold thousands of children in intentionally motherless or fatherless homes so that Chad and Thad can dress up and play house represents the height of narcissism.

So yes, if elected, Barack Obama – the "change candidate" – will undoubtedly live up to his name. He will certainly institute sweeping change over the next four to eight years. But as you walk into that voting booth on Nov. 4, consider whether Obama's brand of change is change America can afford. Because isn't change – for the mere sake of change – really just chump change?

Funniest thing I've heard in ages!


How amusing to discuss things with SkorpioG, resident atheist and straight-basher. He said the funniest thing to me today;

I'm a "bitter old man." Hahahahaha!!!!!!!!!! I guess I'll have to put my life in Skorpio's hands, if I mean to get happy!

reply to skorpio

Stop stalking me, sir. Your pleading has become pathetic. It's the usual BS ranted by all militant homosexuals. Is there any common sense left in you that serious opponents can appeal to, anymore?

You went for a ride on the great "victim train" now resulting in your train wreck over Calif Prop 8.

Appeals to everything normal in nature and our society are mere common sense, not ploys. You don't have to be advancing any negative agenda to speak common sense. You see this as a "trump" because you can't remotely speak with reason and common sense on marriage.

You have civil unions. If you had problems in that sphere, it wouldn't be "trumped" so easily. Defeat of Prop 8 is nothing but obstinate abuse and encroachment on the standards of human decency.

We'll pass Prop 8; and in time all corrupt gay agendas are going in the trash pile. Civil rights, Yes.

Abuse of civilized norms and honorable marriage NO.
