Newsweek: Obama ‘The First Gay President’ of the United States
The Daily Caller ^ | 13 May 2012 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 05/13/2012 10:06:56 AM PDT by mandaladon

If Time is going to feature a woman breastfeeding on its cover to foment attention for its magazine, Newsweek apparently isn’t going to sit still and allow Time to get all the attention.

On this week’s issue of Tina Brown’s Newsweek magazine, President Barack Obama is adorned with a rainbow halo, with the headline “The First Gay President,” an obvious play off commentary that former President Bill Clinton was “the first black president.”

The cover promotes the story by Andrew Sullivan, who admitted on his Daily Beast blog and on this weekend’s “The Chris Matthews Show” that the announcement was a very emotional one for him.

“I do not know how orchestrated this was; and I do not know how calculated it is,” Sullivan wrote. “What I know is that, absorbing the news, I was uncharacteristically at a loss for words for a while, didn’t know what to write, and, like many Dish readers, there are tears in my eyes.”

he reads his teleprompter the way they write it and otherwise stays out of the office

Great description of the last 3 and a half years!

He could write about what he wants to be when he grows up. The desperate clingy need for "validation" from the "Great Father" in Washington D.C. tells me that this is someone who hasn't quite made it out of adolescence.

Alas, many people in this country who are nominally adults have this shortcoming.

That is exactly the formula.

Now it will never be mentioned in the MSM again because its old news. Now back to Romney’s high school pranks.

I'd put Pierce before Buchanan but there were a bunch of bad presidents in that period. Tyler, Taylor, Fillmore, Pierce, Buchanan. Polk was the only good one in that period, and even that's depending on which side. Post civil war wasn't much better. Johnson, Grant.

And in the modern era, we have LBJ, Carter, and Obama, Clinton a step above them when kept in check, and even the Bushes and Nixons aren't prizes.

Obama might not be a full-blown homosexual. He is probably bi-sexual (a lot of narcissists are and have sexual confusion or perversions). Our first bi-racial, bi-sexual, and bi-assed (double meaning as in “biased” and “half-as*ed) president. No wonder he has never known who he really is, and has no abilities for solving problems. One half of his psyche is always fighting with, hating, criticizing, or trying to out-smart the other half.

I mistook Andrew Sullivan for Larry Sinclair, so I was hoping maybe the real story has come out.

If Newsweek wants to have a real story to go with this headline, Sinclair would be the guy to talk to, not Andrew Sullivan. And maybe the mother of one of the gay members of Jeremiah Wright’s “church” who was killed - the mother who was saying he was killed because he had been a gay partner of Obama. At least that’s what I’ve heard she’s saying. If that’s not correct, I hope somebody will correct me.

Buchanan was 1st, Abe was 2nd.

Oh-Bam-Ah! More appropriate cover would be the pics of him bending over bowing to other male leaders. He’s had lots of practice bending over.

Well, it stands to reason

Everything about the “man” is fake: fake American, fake religion, fake ideology, fake credentials, fake speeches, fake manliness, fake commander-in-chief, fake birth certificates, faked concerns about the military men, faked concerns about women, faked concerns about blacks, faked elections, fake social security cards, fake American, fake everything.

Now we know what those Wednesday night parties at the White House were/are about. Does anyone have any records about the people who visited the man during those parties, and who is it that he parties with when “playing golf”?

LMFAO this is going to be great for his campaign as evident from the last Raz prez tracking poll that had him losing by 7 points, the public just loves homosexuality as a campaign issue.

I remember reading somewhere that his mentor Frank Marshall Davis was a pervert. Check the story at http://www.nationalenquirer.com/celebrity/exclusive-obama-sex-perv-scandal.

It's quite possible that Davis molested Obama who saw him as a father figure.

I wonder if the Arabic version of Newsweek (NEWSWEEK BIL LOGHA AL-ARABIA) will carry the same story.

Michell(wide load) is pretty good at keeping her distance from him.

They travel on searate planes, she campaigns half way across the country from him. He doesn’t stay in the White House any more than he has to, to allow Air Force One to change the oil and get new tires.

I figured he was bi-sexual, but I suppose doing his duty with Michelle when he has to has pretty much turned him off from them.

“Pierce before Buchanan”

The elder Barbara Bush is the fourth cousin four times removed of President Franklin Pierce 1804-1869.

Washington irving was supposed to have had a long term relationship with Franklin Pierce.

At the age of 30 Pierce married Jane Appleton. Two months before becoming president his 11 year old son was killed in a train wreck. Pierce was a brigadier general during the Mexican War. Pierce was the 14th president 1853-1857.
