President Barack H. Obama is poised to be the most pro-homosexual chief executive in history.

Unveiling his agenda Tuesday on the newly refurbished version of the White House Web site, Obama called for the repeal of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), as well as the extension of more than 1,000 federal marriage benefits and of adoption rights to homosexual couples.

The new administration laid out its plans on the Web site--whitehouse.gov--at 12:01 p.m. EST, during Obama’s swearing-in ceremony.

The site’s “Civil Rights” section lists a number of items long on the homosexual agenda, including expanding federal hate-crimes laws, repealing the ban on homosexuals in the military and extending the definition of workplace discrimination to include sexual orientation.

In the section entitled “Support for the LGBT (Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual/Transgendered) Community,” the Web site says Obama wants full inclusion of homosexual couples under federal law.

“President Obama supports full civil unions that give same-sex couples legal rights and privileges equal to those of married couples,” the Web site says.

“Obama also believes we need to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and enact legislation that would ensure that the 1,100-plus federal legal rights and benefits currently provided on the basis of marital status are extended to same-sex couples.” the Web site says....

ROTFL!

I’d say The Messiah didn’t pay much attention to how the last Democrat administration started off, nor what resulted 24 months later - the loss of the House of Representatives for the first time in over 40 years.

Now, if they will only come after our guns.....

Prop 8 in CA passed because of his large black turnout who voted overwhelmingly for Prop 8. Thank you brothers and sisters, but to hell with what you want. I am the One.

Obama told us he was for change! This is not the change people bargained for. Obama told America that marriage was between a man and a woman. Oppps.

No kidding. Gay marriage has been a poisonous issue for Democrats. We can only hope that Obama pushes these issues in his first months in office.

Now, if they will only come after our guns.....

Hopefully, Obama will ignore the example of the gun-friendly Democrat governors who have been elected in places like Virginia. But, I doubt he will- his political background is very far removed from that experience.

Given the pathetic state and demeanor of “conservative “opposition, and “run up the score” mentality of the new Administration, this is just the appetizer in a 12 course screwfest.
