WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama's campaign says he's "disappointed" with North Carolina's constitutional amendment banning gay marriage.

Obama campaign spokesman Cameron French said in a Tuesday statement that the ban on same-sex unions is "divisive and discriminatory." French says same-sex couples deserve the same rights and legal protections as straight couples.

North Carolinians overwhelming voted Tuesday to amend their state constitution, strengthening a state law that already outlawed same-sex unions.

does the Obama campaign spokesperson speak for obama ?
If so, looks like Obama’s position has fully evolved.

Time to take it to Carney again and watch his head explode some more.

Why is Obama “disappointed” I thought his views on fruit cake marriage were “Evolving”

Any bets that Obama’s lips will either be purple or black before the week is out? This jugged eared Marxist will be hitting the crack pipe hard. Just to reiterate what that lady said at the Romney rally the other day: “Obama should be tried for treason!” This POS should be spending his days in a federal prison for what he's done to this country!

I wonder if he’ll be gutsy enough to risk pissing off NC by getting Holder to do something to block the law from being implemented. Could get very interesting!

Doubt Obie will find the ice cream if Moochele’s not off on an exotic vacation. The freezer is locked or she’s already eaten the stash.

Isn’t canceling conventions in states that adopt a policy they don’t like the standard? Let them move the convention out of NC. Who wants their lousy EVs anyway? Can you imagine the reaction if O weren’t desperate to keep NC’s EVs? They’d get the Full AZ treatment.

Agreed.
and Obumo is disappointed
that the people of NC democratically made a statement
which “his highness” finds troubling.
Poor boy.
Free choice just sucks when you don’t get your way.

Carney..isn’t he the guy that never lies? I’m sure we’ll hear the truth tomorrow of Obama’s stance.*sarc*

It would be nice- then we could be certain they’d go someplace else.

“Well then, might I suggest Obama find his old sarong and a VHS copy of “The Crying Game”.”

Bozo can always borrow a MooMoo from MoMo!
